Abstract

When recognizing the need of involving stakeholders for mapping role-specific requirements to system behavior, semantic interoperability is becoming a crucial issue in development. Elicitation, analysis, and specification need to go beyond a purely functional perspective on system development and integrate interactions relevant for stakeholders. We discuss a behavior perspective to mutually adjust role-specific elements, and in this way design organization-relevant support systems. Since interacting role element specifications can be automatically executed, designs can be evaluated interactively, and digital support systems can be developed incrementally.
