Abstract

Problem Frames approach is a new and prospective tool for classifying, analyzing and structuring software development problems. However, it has not yet been widely used mainly because lacking of CASE tools for guiding the problem frame specification development. This paper proposes an ontology based solution for this kind of CASE tools. An ontology of Problem Frames approach has been developed for this purpose. It specifies the basic terms elicited from Problem Frames approach and gives a concept model of this approach. This ontology can serve as the guidance of specifying the application problems. A case study has been given for illustration.
