These and other possible future developments have been organised in a UEML roadmap comprising several research directions, each detailed by specific actions (Opdahl & Berio 2006). To some extent, further UEML development in each direction can progress in parallel without strict coordination. 

The ten original directions were:
# Language breadth – include more languages; 
# Ontological depth – refine the common ontology; 
# Ontological clarity  – elaborate the common ontology language; 
# Presentation – extend the support for presentation issues; 
# Mathematical formality – define UEML semantics formally; 
# Tool support – develop prototype tool with GUI and validation support; 
# Model management – provide support for model management in addition to language management; 
# Validation – structural and behavioural language and model validation; 
# Dissemination – make UEML known in industry and academia and as a standard; 
# Community – establish and maintain a committed and cohesive community for managing and evolving UEML and its approach.
