I have an windows application developed, and I need to document its architecture. I made a 3-tier diagram according to Microsoft Practices and Patterns, but my chief wants a representation made from UML's perspective. How do you represent a 3-tier diagram on UML? PS: The three tiers are basically, a presentation layer, business layer and data access layer. Just in case.
