Modelling Telecare Service Requirements for Older People Using the Unified Modelling Language
نویسندگان
چکیده
Providing technology support for older people offers distinct challenges for social and IT systems delivery. The definition and integration of services, the diversity of supply, variance in structures, and the lack of centralised control, introduce significant challenges. These challenges stretch contemporary methods in the social and IT domains. In this paper, we introduce a method that we have developed and used successfully over a number of years. We briefly introduce a protocol and framework that utilises the Unified Modelling Language and adapts best practice from methods such as the Unified Software Development Method, the Dynamic System Development Method, and user-centred approaches from the care sector such as Userfit.

Influences of Satisfaction with Telecare and Family Trust in Older Taiwanese People
The level of trust given towards telecare by the family members of older people using the service is extremely important. Family trust may be an influential factor in deciding whether to use such services. This study focuses on older people's satisfaction with telecare and examines their family's trust in telecare services. Influences on intention to continue using telecare services are also ex...
متن کاملMethodology for Requirements Analysis and Design in Development of Service-Oriented Information Systems
Service orientation and Model Driven Development are the pillars of modern Information Systems. Service-oriented information systems are composed of loosely coupled and interoperable services driven by requirements of users. New modelling facilities are proposed to enable effective service development including more rigorous requirements definition, reconciliation and transformations of require...
متن کاملTowards Using UML 2 for Modelling Web Service Collaboration Protocols
In a web environment, graphical specifications of service collaborations which focus on the protocols of collaborating services are especially important, in order to attain the desired properties of interoperability and loose coupling. Different to modelling of generic software component collaborations, additional requirements must be considered, including security and transaction aspects, and ...
متن کاملTraceability in requirements through process modelling, applied to social care applications
This paper relates experiences of using a business-process approach to the determination of requirements for social care systems, developed initially through the development of the PLANEC system, and applied to other telecare systems. The method utilises a loose-coupled hierarchical grouping of processes as a strategic view, and more tightly coupled models such as workflows (e.g. UML activity d...
متن کاملCloud Application Modelling and Execution Language (CAMEL) and the PaaSage Workflow
Model-driven engineering (MDE) is a branch of software engineering that aims at improving the productivity, quality, and cost-effectiveness of software development by promoting models and model transformations as the primary assets in software development. Models can be specified using general-purpose languages like the Unified Modeling Language (UML). However, to fully unfold the potential of ...
