Abstract

Discusses how the Remap system (representation and maintenance of process knowledge) uses a semiformal representation that supports the design and maintenance of large-scale software systems. The conceptual model relates design rationale knowledge to the resulting system, providing the primitives/ templates with which we can capture (often informal) design rationale information. The model's semantics are well defined, allowing automated reasoning with its components. By providing a complete design history, Remap enhances the understandability of designs and offers a mechanism for propagating changes in design decisions into changes in design solutions.
