摘要

In an attempt to answer the need of wider accessibility andpopularization of the treasury of Bulgarian folklore, a team from the Institute ofMathematics and Informatics at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences hasplanned to develop the Bulgarian folklore artery within the national project―Knowledge Technologies for Creation of Digital Presentation and SignificantRepositories of Folklore Heritage‖. This paper presents the process of businessmodeling of the application architecture of the Bulgarian folklore artery, whichaids requirements analysis, application design and its software implementation.The folklore domain process model is made in the context of the target socialapplications—e-learning, virtual expositions of folklore artifacts, research,news, cultural/ethno-tourism, etc. The basic processes are analyzed andmodeled and some inferences are made for the use cases and requirementsspecification of the Bulgarian folklore artery application. As a conclusion theapplication architecture of the Bulgarian folklore artery is presented.
