Abstract

Current software development methodologies usually assume the existence of definite rules and processes in target problem domains. However, in the software development for non-routine applications, this assumption might decrease the productivity, and makes it difficult to identify the optimal solutions. The paper proposes a development method for such software development using fishbone diagrams in order to analyze the requirements of stake holders, which can finally derive UML diagrams from the cause-result structure defined by the fishbone diagrams. The method could improve the productivity of the above development, creating high quality software specifications. We also show a case study on developing education assistance software using the proposed method.
