Package diagrams can use packages that represent the different layers of a software system to illustrate the layered architecture of a software system. The dependencies between these packages can be adorned with labels / stereotypes to indicate the communication mechanism between the layers. When To Use - It is used in large scale systems to picture dependencies between major elements in the system - Package diagrams represent a compile time grouping mechanism." [Package diagram.
