Pattern-Based Approach for Designing with Diagrammatic and Propositional Conceptual Models

  • Conference paper
Service-Oriented Perspectives in Design Science Research (DESRIST 2011)

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNISA,volume 6629))

Abstract

A conceptual modeling approach for Ubiquitous Information Systems (UIS) is presented as a central part of a UIS design methodology. Three conceptual models are used for step-wise derivation of machine-executable design models for distributed service infrastructures: narratives, pattern-based diagrammatic conceptual models (Pre-Artifacts), and formalized propositional conceptual models.
