Abstract
- A major purpose of analysis is to represent precisely all relevant facts, as they are observed in the external world. A substantial problem in object-oriented analysis is that most modelling languages are more suitable to build computational models than to develop conceptual models. It is a rather blind assumption that concepts that are convenient for design can also be applied during analysis. Preconditions, postconditions and invariants are typical examples of concepts with blurred semantics. At the level of analysis they are most often used to specify business rules. This paper introduces proper concepts for modelling business rules and specifies their semantics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
