Complex systems of systems such as Smart Grids, Smart Cities, Smart homes / buildings, Active Assisted Living (AAL) systems etc call for cooperation between experts from several different domains (e.g. home automation, health, energy, telematics, IT etc.).
In the specification and design of such systems, standards play an essential role to obtain interoperable, safe, secure and cost effective solutions. A common cooperation platform, including a collaboration framework (terminology, quality guidelines, workflows, etc.), for involved stakeholders is needed both in project development as well as in standardization work.
PD IEC 62559-1 provides the basis for a common use case management repository in order to gather use cases within IEC on a common collaborative platform and to organize a harmonization of use cases in order to provide broadly accepted generic use cases as basis for the further standardization work.
Note: Operational documents like user manuals for software tools like the use case repository are not described in detail as they will be available online and might as well be fre...
