Abstract :
Use Case diagrams are widely used to model system behaviour and also to represent user´s interaction with the system. Context Aware Systems (CASs) are dynamic in nature and their response is based on varying parameters such as time and location. Due to this dynamic nature, such systems cannot be represented by the existing form of use case diagrams. In this paper the authors present a set of enhancements to the typical form of use case diagrams to fully model a CASs.
