Computer Aided Support for Content Management Development

Content management development searches for improvements in the utilization of information and communication technology in the management of various information resources, and for more systematic ways for the management. The goal of the development may be, for example, integration of different software systems, improvements in information retrieval or archival, building new kinds of services for people working in the development domain, or all these together. The paper discusses the differences in the content management and information systems development and the information modelling needs in content management development. The paper introduces a computer aided modelling tool built over a metaCASE tool for content management development. The tool has been used to analyze and describe content management in the Finnish legislative work. The paper reports experiences of using the tool.
