Abstract

Human emotions are considered as decision factors in specific knowledge-based systems. However, there is neither a consolidated conceptualization of the emotion domain nor a widely used modeling language, let alone a method. To close this gap, this paper presents such a language and first steps to a method. An essential aspect is that we have not conceived this language as a “stand-alone” one. Rather, it is designed for being embedded into other modeling standard or domain specific languages. For illustration purposes we use the Active and Assisted Living (AAL) domain as a running example. We conducted a first evaluation of our approach by implementing a modeling tool using the ADOxx\(^{\textregistered }\) metamodeling framework.
