Domain Analysis of the Alarm Surveillance Domain. Version 1.0. Conducted as Partof the Domain Analysis Case Study Project

摘要

The Domain Analysis Case Study was created to examine the potential use of domainanalysis methods in supporting software reuse. To this end, the Domain Analysis Case Study has investigated the use of a particular domain analysis method, called the Feature Oriented Domain Analysis (FODA) method. This report describes the results of the application of the second phase of the FODA method--the domain modeling phase--to the alarm surveillance domain. During this phase, a domain model of alarm surveillance systems was created. This model captured commonalities and variabilities of the alarm surveillance domain with respect to the features of systems in the domain, the functions system perform, and the underlying structure of data used by systems. The domain model is intended to be reused to derive functional requirements for new software systems in this domain.
