| Abstract: This application note describes two refinements to essential use case models that make it easier to model a variety of real-world tasks. These improvements provide a simple notation for conditional actions and for partially ordered or unordered interactions between users and systems. The concept of "extends" in use case modeling for object-oriented software engineering is refined and clarified. | |
| Keywords: essential use cases, notation, interaction design, conditional interaction, partially ordered interaction, extensions, task modeling | |
