Abstract :
Use cases that describe possible interactions involving a system and its environment are increasingly being accepted as effective means for requirements elicitation and analysis. In the current practice, informal definitions of use cases are used and the analysis process is manual. We present UCEd an environment for use cases based requirements engineering. UCEd includes tools for use cases edition in conjunction with a domain model, use cases integration and use cases simulation.
