Domain analysis for business software systems

摘要

Recent trends in the development of business software include process orientation, integration of several capabilities into the one system, internationalization, and the need for rapid response to changes in the business environment. Domain models are a means of dealing with these trends. We partition domain models into concept models and process models, discuss their structure and representation, and examine the models in relation to the new trends. We also consider how domain models can enhance reuse and assist in maintenance.
