Abstract

There is a variety of modelling methods and tools for software (application) system development. Nevertheless, the field still lacks a set of well-defined, commonly understood and solidly anchored basic concepts which can be used as a uniform referential framework to build upon more specialised and sophisticated models and systems. This paper is intended to put into discussion the kernel of such a conceptual framework which comprises elements of static modelling as well as elements of dynamic modelling. In order to meet formal requirements such as systematics, consistency, orthogonality and disambiguity as well as requirements of practitioners like readability, transparency and applicability, a (semi-formal) meta-model approach has been chosen for presenting the framework.
