Derving and paraphrasing information grammars using object-oriented analysis models

摘要

In this paper the focus is on object-oriented analysis of infor- mation systems. We assume that the communication within an application domain can be described by a logbook of events. In our view, the purpose of the analysis phase is to model the structure of this logbook. The result- ing conceptual model is referred to as the information architecture, and is an integration of three formal object-oriented analysis models with each a specific view on the application domain. Furthermore, the information architecture forms an abstraction of an underlying grammar, called the in- formation grammar, for the communication within the application domain.
