If you want to see a good example of UML in practice check out Sun's J2EE specification at http://java.sun.com/j2ee/docs.html . There is a ton of documentation there , but they make heavy use of UML which really helps. As well as Class Diagrams they have a lot of Sequence Diagrams & State Diagrams. These are the diagrams that really add value as they give a dynamic view of the system eg. how EJBs change state over time. Much more useful than just a bunch of static Class Diagrams which dont give a sense of how the system actually behaves.
