Using Transformations to Integrate Task Models in the UML
Overview Task modeling is a central and familiar concept in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) but seldom-used in Object-Oriented Software Engineering (OOSE). A task model describes the activities in which users are involved to achieve some goal. A task model details the users' goals and the strategies adopted to achieve those goals, in terms of the actions that users perform, the objects involved in those actions and the sequencing of activities. From an object-oriented software engineering perspective, task models can be considered similar to use-case models. However the definition of a use-case model only refers to system functionality that provides users with results of value.
