28 CHAPTER 2 The Pragmatic SYSMOD Approach
2.1.1 Describe Project Context
The project context is shown in Table 2.2 .
At the beginning of the project we will fi rst of all think about the goals that the
system under development is to pursue: Why? What for? Where to? It is extremely
important to recognize the goals and system ideas, and to document them and
communicate about them with all project participants. Motivating common goals
weld together a team and provide for direction.
Alice: ??? Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here? ???
The cat: ??? That depends a good deal on where you want to get to. ???
Alice: ??? I don ??™ t much care where. ???
The cat: ??? Then it doesn ??™ t much matter which way you go. ???
Alice: ??? So long as I get somewhere. ???
The cat: ??? Oh, you ??™ re sure to do that, if only you walk long enough. ???
(Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland [7])
Goals help make decisions. When there are controversial discussions, a decision
will be made in favor of the idea that best supports the goal.
