Abstract

The increasing demand for new telecommunication services encourages service providers to extend their service offerings. However, the development of such services and their deployment on the public network are non-trivial tasks. Experience has shown that the use of conceptual models can assist in the development of new systems. This paper investigates the usefulness of conceptual models containing information on the telecommunications domain and development process models, during the development of new telecommunication services. After an introduction to conceptual models, telecommunication services and requirements engineering, informal, semi-formal and formal conceptual models are discussed. Then Telos, an object-oriented knowledge-representation language that is well suited for conceptual modeling, is introduced. Some examples of the application and integration of informal, semi-formal and formal conceptual models in the Requirements Assistant for Telecommunication Services (RATS) are given.

在设计新的电信服务时概念模型的使用

对新电讯服务的需求不断增加，促使服务供应商扩大其服务范围。然而，这些服务的开发及其在公共网络上的部署是一项艰巨的任务。经验表明，概念模型的使用有助于新系统的发展。本文研究了包含电信领域信息的概念模型和开发过程模型在新电信业务开发中的有用性。在介绍了概念模型、电信服务和需求工程之后，讨论了非正式、半正式和正式的概念模型。然后介绍了一种适合于概念建模的面向对象的知识表示语言Telos。给出了在电信服务需求助手(RATS)中应用和集成非正式、半正式和正式概念模型的一些例子。
