Domain Analysis for Developing Domain Specific CASE

SHIMIZU Yoko, OBI Toshiyuki, MIHARA Yukihiro

To increase the efficiency of CASE, Domain Specific CASE is expected. This CASE focuses on one domain, and realizes high level support. A Domain Specific CASE has to be developed for every domain, and there are two key items for success : "how precise to fit to the domain", and "how efficient to develop". To satisfy these items, it is important to analyze the target domain fully. In this paper, we propose an domain analysis technique. This technique consists of seven works, and each work is provided with steps and guidelines. A feature of this technique is to make effective use of already developed software. From the software, analysts grasp the characteristics of that domain, and form the frame of reuse. A result of analysis is called a domain model. By referring this model, a Domain Specific CASE can be developed efficiently, and the CASE can be fittable to the target domain. We applied this technique to develop a CASE for automatic teller machine's control software, and confirmed our technique's effect.
