RiSD: A Methodology for Building i-Strategic Dependency Models
نویسندگان
چکیده
Goal-oriented models have become a consolidated type of artefact in various software and knowledge engineering activities. Several languages exist for representing such type of models but there is a lack of associated methodologies for guiding their construction up to the necessary level of detail. In this paper we present RiSD, a methodology for building Strategic Dependency (SD) models in the i* notation. RiSD is defined in a prescriptive way to reduce uncertainness when constructing the model. RiSD also tackles two fundamental issues: on the one hand, it tends to reduce the average size of the resulting models and, on the other hand, it allows including some traceability relationships in the resulting models. As a result, we may say that RiSD increases the understandability of goal-oriented models whilst improving all construction.

متن کاملOPTIMUM PERFORMANCE-BASED DESIGN OF CONCENTRICALLY BRACED STEEL FRAMES SUBJECTED TO NEAR-FAULT GROUND MOTION EXCITATIONS
This paper presents a practical methodology for optimization of concentrically braced steel frames subjected to forward directivity near-fault ground motions, based on the concept of uniform deformation theory. This is performed by gradually shifting inefficient material from strong parts of the structure to the weak areas until a state of uniform deformation is achieved. In this regard, to ove...
متن کاملItemized Strategic Dependency: a Variant of the i* SD Model to Facilitate Knowledge Elicitation
This paper introduces a variant of the i* Strategic Dependency (SD) model, called Itemized Strategic Dependency (ISD). The goal of introducing ISDs was to use a simplified version of SD diagrams to model actor dependencies in requirements and process engineering. We used ISD models during the early stages of a software process improvement initiative in one of R&D organizations at Ericsson Italy...
متن کاملControl chart based on residues: Is a good methodology to detect outliers?
The purpose of this article is to evaluate the application of forecasting models along with the use of residual control charts to assess production processes whose samples have autocorrelation characteristics. The main objective is to determine the efficiency of control charts for individual observations (CCIO) and exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) charts when they are applied to res...
متن کاملThe Use of UML Activity Diagrams and the i* Language in the Modeling of the Balanced Scorecard Implantation Process
Business management is a complex task that can be facilitated using different methodologies and models. One of their most relevant purposes is to align the organization strategy with the daily functioning of the organization. One of these models is the Balanced Scorecard (BSC). In this paper, we propose a modeling strategy for the BSC implantation process. We will model it using UML Activity Di...
