<systems analysis> 1. Determining the operations, data objects,
properties and abstractions appropriate for designing solutions to problems in a
given domain.
2. The domain engineering activity in which domain knowledge is studied and
formalised as a domain definition and a domain specification. A software reuse
approach that involves combining software components, subsystems, etc., into a
single application system.
3. The process of identifying, collecting organising, analysing and representing
a domain model and software architecture from the study of existing systems,
underlying theory, emerging technology and development histories within the
domain of interest.
4. The analysis of systems within a domain to discover commonalities and
differences among them.
