maharlou-bakhtegan catchment in the southern part of iran is faced with water scarcity.this problem is exacerbated by environmental degradation, climate change effects, mismanagementof water resources, along with a major dependence of water demand supplies on the limitedgroundwater resources. in this study, a combined approach of dpsir model along with the scenarioanalysis was employed to deriv...

Resolving a substantial part of the uncertainties underlying the hydrological cause-effect chains, like those involving sudden morphological changes or clogging of critical flow sections, is doubtlessly a major challenge in hazard assessment. On the one hand purely numerical modelling approaches fail to accurately and precisely mirror such a wide rage of complex phenomena on the other hand thro...

Scenarios have been advocated as an effective means of acquiring and validating requirements as they capture examples and real world experiences that users can understand [Potts et al. 1994]. Although scenarios have appeared in many diverse forms [Carroll 1995], most authors have used them for behavioural analysis, e.g. scenario scripts [Potts et al. 1994] and use case scenarios [Jacobson et al...

In this paper we consider the following task: given an abstract state machine, characterize the subsets of initial values corresponding to different typical scenarios of the system behavior. In order to solve it we suggest formalization of the notion of scenario and then discuss possible approaches to the classification of the computations.

Software architecture is one of the most important tools for designing and understanding a system, whether that system is in preliminary design, active deployment, or maintenance. Scenarios are important tools for exercising an architecture in order to gain information about a system’s fitness with respect to a set of desired quality attributes. This paper presents a set of experiential case st...
