  • 1240 Accesses

Part of the SpringerBriefs in Energy book series (BRIEFSENERGY)

Abstract

In this chapter, the development of a Use Case Management Repository (UCMR) and a three-dimensional SGAM visualisation by OFFIS are introduced. Firstly, a part of the requirements specification and the functional design of the UCMR are shown. For this purpose, several functional and non-functional requirements for the UCMR are described as well as visualised by a functional design. Secondly, basic functions of the tool-support are illustrated by the previous use case example Behaviour monitoring system in the kitchen of private households with an own energy storage. The UCMR and the three-dimensional SGAM visualisation are depicted as screen-shots.
