Scenarios – Part 4 : The Future Rosson , Carroll & Rodi 1 Teaching Computer Scientists to Make Use

Scenario-based design is a family of techniques in which the use of a future system is concretely described at an early point in the development process. Narrative descriptions of envisioned usage episodes are then employed in a variety of ways to guide the development of the system that will enable these use experiences. Scenarios are stories of users and their behaviour, which makes them an excellent medium for discovering, addressing, refining, and managing usage concerns in the design of software systems.
