I have :
Android SDK Tools, Revision 22
Android SDK Platform, API 18
I go to <android-sdk>/tools/ , I see there is one file named "uiautomatorviewer",
I execute command uiautomatorviewer from terminal under the above path, however I got the following message:
uiautomatorviewer: command not found
why?

This happens because of incompatible versions of java. uiautomatorviewer requires java 8 and if you've java version above 8 (for example in my case it's java 12) so it will fail to start. There is a hack to run uiautomatorviewer without downgrading java version.
"uiautomatorviewer" is now replaced with "monitor" starting with android studio 2.3. I saw that uiautomatorviewer is no longer available with Android Studio 2.3. There is another tool called “monitor” which has the option “Dump View Hierarchy for UI Automator”.
Because your tools/ directory is not in your PATH. Either use ./uiautomatorviewer or add tools/ (and probably platform-tools/ to your PATH. Note that this has nothing to do with programming and everything to do with your *nix-style OS (Linux, OS X, etc.).

Please note that uiautomatorviewer executable has been moved in SDK Tools Revision 25.3.0 update (Feb 2017) to new location under <android-sdk>\tools\bin

Navigate to tools folder, then launch terminal, launch monitor(Android Device Monitor) using ./monitor command.
ADM will get launched, left side of the window you may find

Just follow these steps,
Open command prompt,Go to your bin folder inside tools folder of sdk location.
Example: C:\android-sdk\android-sdk\tools\bin.
Then in cmd type uiautomatorviewer and hit enter. It would immedialy open UI Automator Viewer.
