Semantics E-Science Assignment 2- Fall 2011 By Charisma-F.A.L

My Use Case Area: Weather/Climate Informatics Scope: Predict the weather conditions for the next 30 days in Troy

Use Case Analysis Sites showed that: Businesses depend on weather information How the tools function Weather Channels only provide 7-day forecast Functional Requirements Non-functional requirements

Knowledge encoding

Alternate flow:

Use Case Pre-conditions – WIS and Researcher should have good knowledge – Interpretable charts and maps to be created – Data servers should be up and running – Efficient algorithm – Businesses must have access to YNN or radio Post-conditions – WIS and Researcher must be able to store the data for future use – Businesses must be able to use the data >>> Testing the system should be done >>>

Checking if the ontology model meets the goal of my use case 1.If the Weather Information System were to ask the Data Servers for all the information about the current weather conditions (so that it could process this information in its algorithm), would it get the information? 2. If YNN were to ask the WIS for the 30 day advance weather information so that it could show it on TV, would it get the information?

Questions???
