Glossary

Content and Motivation

You need to understand the most important domain terms and expressions, that stakeholders use when communicating about the system, its interfaces, goals and requirements.

The glossary is one manifestation of our pledge for “explicit, not implicit”, as it associates words or terms with sense, meaning and semantics.

In the case of our small example, the terms given here should be good friends to most developers. You find a more interesting version of the glossary in section II-8.1.
