Adding deployment diagrams to a model

Deployment diagrams show the configuration of run-time processing elements and the software component instances that reside on them. Use deployment diagrams to specify the run-time physical architecture of a system.

Deployment diagrams are graphs of nodes connected by communication associations. Component instances are assigned to run on specific nodes during program execution. Relation lines represent communication paths between nodes.

The following figure shows a deployment diagram.
