The final installment in this three-volume set is based on this maxim: "Before software can be designed its requirements must be well understood, and before the requirements can be expressed properly the domain of the application must be well understood." The book covers the process from the development of domain descriptions, through the derivation of requirements prescriptions from domain models, to the refinement of requirements into software architectures and component design.
