Modelling Theory and Practice
for Software Engineers and Business Analysts.
Mastering Complexity by the Means of Abstraction.
Part I: Finite Relational Structures.
Modelling is a basic technique for handling complex problems, especially in Software Engineering and Business or Systems Analysis. This book deals with the subject from its rigorous foundations in Logic and Discrete Mathematics to its relevant contributions to typical Software and Business Engineering problems.
