Dagstuhl Workshop on Scenario Management

چکیده
ion helps us to manage complexity when we deal with large sets of scenarios. Type abstraction leads from the extensional to the intensional level. Content abstraction allows us to use boxes with names instead of full descriptions. Composition abstraction consolidates a set of scenarios into a common higher-level scenario. Generalization abstraction factors out common properties. Usage abstraction lets one scenario make use of other scenarios that provide lower-level services. Aspect abstraction focuses scenarios on one particular aspect of the problem. To what extent we need these kinds of abstraction in which situations is still a research topic. Scenarios Support the Acquisition and Impact Analysis of Business Rules Sol J. Greenspan, GTE Labs, Waltham, USA Business Rules (BRs) are decisions made to achieve the goals of an enterprise, and comprise an important set of requirements on the (human and automated) systems that support the running of the enterprise. For example, a bank with the goal of „reducing fraud“ might impose the rule that checks over $ 5000 require a second signature, besides the bank tellers before being cashed. There may be a large set of BRs involving many goals, activities and agents. When a statement is made such as „in context C use rule R to achieve goal G,“ there is typically uncertainty about the degree of effectiveness if the rule is followed, the consequences of not following it, and the accuracy of the context in which it is considered applicable. Scenarios of enterprise operation help in several ways; to explore and decide on BRs; to discover conflicts; and, if specified sufficiently formally, to support rapid deployment/evolution of the BRs. Because BRs are usually heuristic and speculative, their effectiveness, risks and correctness of context can often only be confirmed or measured by observing the actual running of the enterprise. Scenarios are, again, the proposed tools for providing feedback to check the BRs. In our work at GTE Labs, we base BRs on a conceptual enterprise model and a decision support system, and we simulate business scenarios to develop and validate the rules.
