Abstract
Description
There exists a gap between objects which exist in the real world and the elements which represent them in a software system. This paper addresses this gap with a domain modeling process able to construct, manage, and negotiate the appropriate domain concepts within a domain model. This process is based on an ontological approach and its constituting components. It was developed as a Model Driven Architecture (MDA), provides a framework of models which can store the various aspects contained within a software system. Within the context of the MDA, the domain modeling process and models will be situated within the Computational Independent Model. This approach is illustrated by its application to a simple situational case study.
