Abstract

Protecting software from the earliest stages of development is crucial to safeguarding intellectual property. Copyright protection can be integrated at various levels of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) to prevent unauthorized access and duplication. In this paper, we introduce UML Script Language (U-SCRIPT), a text-based scripting language designed to represent UML class diagrams through structured statements. U-SCRIPT enables software developers to encode UML diagrams in a secure, script-based format, concealing critical design structures from unauthorized viewers. Furthermore, it supports seamless transformation back into visual UML class diagrams. By providing both security and formal verification capabilities, U-SCRIPT helps protect algorithmic concepts and software design from unauthorized replication while maintaining usability for developers.
