Abstract: Using colors has been recognized by Software Engineering research as helpful to make graphical software models more comprehensible. However, guidelines of where and how to use colors have been only little investigated yet. In this paper, we give two simple examples and propose some guidelines of where and how to use colors in UML models efficiently. Our guidelines may provide valuable help to use colors as a visual aid of software models and thus reduce the cognitive load of software developers in Model Driven Engineering.
