HASTI: A Lightweight Framework for Cognitive Reengineering Analysis
نویسنده
چکیده
Many software development tools and environments are considered useful because they beneficially reengineer developer cognition. Consequently, to design useful computer tools in cognitive work domains such as software development, one needs to be able to appreciate the possibilities for improving cognition. We argue that to do this, designers need more appropriate cognitive theories and models. In particular, they need models designed to highlight cognitive reengineering possibilities and issues. To address this need, we propose a lightweight modeling framework called HASTI. The intent of HASTI is to support “quick and dirty” cognitive reengineering analysis during the early stages of design. We illustrate HASTI’s applicability in analyzing cognitive support in software development tools.

Cognitive Support in Software Engineering Tools: a Distributed Cognition Framework
Software development remains mentally challenging despite the continual advancement of training, techniques, and tools. Because completely automating software development is currently impossible, it makes sense to seriously consider how tools can improve the mental activities of developers apart from automating them away. Such mental assistance can be called “cognitive support”. Understanding a...
متن کاملA Cognitive Framework for Reengineering Knowledge-intensive Processes
We develop a framework for improving knowledgeintensive aspects of administrative processes. We depart from the premise that changing business processes amounts to manipulating process knowledge in humans and machines, and can thus be seen as a special case of knowledge management. Such a view requires a clear view of what process knowledge is. In this paper, we develop such a view based on con...

متن کاملLearning ontologies from natural language texts
Research on ontology is becoming increasingly widespread in the computer science community. The major problems in building ontologies are the bottleneck of knowledge acquisition and time-consuming construction of various ontologies for various domains/applications. Meanwhile moving toward automation of ontology construction is a solution. We proposed an automatic ontology building approach. In ...
متن کاملA Reengineering Process Framework
This paper describes a unifying structure for the full spectrum of activities that constitute a reengineering project. Part of the framework's "value added" is its usefulness as a reference model for planning a reengineering project and for identifying, describing, understanding, assessing, or evaluating the technical, managerial, and project-related factors that characterize reengineering effo...
