However, these efforts have not seen the desired adoption by industrial practice. Some reasons for this lack of industry adoption have been analyzed by Woods and Hilliard,<ref name="Woods2005">{{Cite book | last1 = Woods | first1 = E. | last2 = Hilliard | first2 = R. | doi = 10.1109/WICSA.2005.15 | chapter = Architecture Description Languages in Practice Session Report | title = 5th Working IEEE/IFIP Conference on Software Architecture (WICSA'05) | pages = 243 | year = 2005 | isbn = 978-0-7695-2548-8 | s2cid = 18175375 }}</ref> Pandey,<ref name="Pandey2010">{{Cite journal | last1 = Pandey | first1 = R.

As a way to overcome some of those limitations, [[Unified Modeling Language|UML]] has been indicated as a possible successor of existing ADLs. Many proposals have been presented to use or extend the UML to more properly model software architectures.<ref>{{cite web|title= Garlan_TR |date= 31 March 2004|url= http://www.sei.cmu.edu/library/abstracts/reports/04tr008.cfm}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book | last1 = Pérez-Martínez | first1 = J.
