Interaction overview diagram

Interaction Overview Diagram[1] is one of the fourteen "

nominative" types of diagrams[2]
of the
interaction diagrams
.

The interaction overview diagram is similar to the

interaction diagram. This makes the interaction overview diagram useful to "deconstruct a complex scenario that would otherwise require multiple if-then-else paths to be illustrated as a single sequence diagram".[3]

The other notation elements for interaction overview diagrams are the same as for activity diagrams. These include initial, final, decision, merge, fork and join nodes. The two new elements in the interaction overview diagrams are the "interaction occurrences" and "interaction elements."[4]
