UML is a general modeling language that offers standardized modeling notations. Some specific domains require to be modeled by specific notations other that proposed in standard UML. Variability managing is one of these specific domains that necessitate specific modeling notations. By this contribution we aim to expand our previous works in extending UML notations in variability management domain. Our main goal is to create a complete UML profile with extended notations of all UML diagrams for modeling variability. In this paper we present new UML “variability” notations (stereotypes, constraints and tagged values) obtained by extension of standard UML ones. These new notations will be used in constructing adapted and appropriate “variability” diagrams. The list of studied UML diagrams contains: four types of structural diagrams (Object diagram, Component diagram, Package diagram, Profile diagram) and three types of behavioral diagrams (Statechart diagram, Communication diagram, Timing diagram).
