Advanced Use Case Modeling: Software Systems

Part 3. Advanced Use Case Modeling Framework: Initial Use Case Model

What’s in this part?

This part presents the process framework for advanced use case modeling.

In Part 3 of this book (Chapters 5–7) we introduce and describe a framework for applying use cases—first the preparatory steps for use case modeling, then key use case concepts and a process framework for applying use case modeling. In a large development effort—with many developers, a large size, and an extended time frame, possibly interspersed with incremental and iterative deliveries of functionality—a use case modeling effort should be approached in a disciplined, organized manner, not as a short, ad hoc activity with few rules. The use case model and its approach should always ...
