Synopsis

About This Book

SBVR Made Easy looks at Business Vocabulary and Business Rules in a projects context, a business operation context and a knowledge exchange context.

Every organisation has a body of terms and definitions: its business vocabulary. It also has business rules that take their meaning and structure directly from this underlying vocabulary.

You can reveal your business vocabulary and rules in an internationally recognised and standardised fashion using the Semantics of Business Vocabulary and Rules (SBVR), the formal specification by the Object Management Group (OMG). This will dramatically increase the quality of your software requirements, process designs, internal work instructions and communication with partners.

This book offers an easy-to-read summary of SBVR's most important ideas. Practical tips for creating specification products and measuring their quality make the standard accessible to a wider audience. A critical assessment of SBVR's strengths and weaknesses is also included. This will be of special interest to the more seasoned business analyst.
