Abstract

Requirement analysis is the first step in the development of information systems and its objective is to ensure that any proposed system meets the projected requirements of the user. As a part of this requirement analysis, an analyst is asked to verify that the proposed system is representationally accurate before undertaking any other evaluation. This paper proposes a Petri Net representation of an information system and the use of a PROLOG-based knowledge base to test its representational accuracy.
