Use cases
 

In this page you learn what is a use case and find a list of railML® use cases.

While the emphasis of the railML®-wiki lies in documenting single elements in a bottom-up approach, we also try to help users to capture the concepts of railML® via examples and use cases in a top down approach.

What is a use case?

A use case can be defined as a single task, performed by the end user of a system, that has some useful outcome[1][2]. It is described as a list of steps (actions or events) to achieve this outcome.

A use case in terms of railML® is an application of data exchange between at least two IT systems in the railway domain, where railML® can be used as a format and language for the data to be exchanged. The aim of the use case description is to formulate requirements on the technical implementation of the data exchange.

What distinguishes a use case from an example is, that examples will typically consist of pieces of railML®-code, whereas use cases will typically be formulated in natural language or Unified Modelling Language (UML). Examples are solutions to use cases.

outlined The use case has been outlined, a rough idea has been discussed but there is no document, nor draft of one yet. Usually no article about this use case is available in the wiki yet, however, sometimes some basic ideas will have been published ×
draft A member of the community has submitted a draft of the use case description. This draft is available in the wiki and can be found above.
consolidated The submitted draft of the use case description has been reviewed by another community member and the schema coordinator has accepted it. × × ×
development
in progress The work for integrating the use case requirements into the railML® schema has begun. A working group is discussing the use case and developing possible additions to the schema. Interested parties are invited to join the working group. × ×
implemented The requirements of this use case have been implemented into the railML® schema. The implementation work of the working group is done. However, not all documents have been finished (PDF documentation of the use case). ×
released The previously implemented use case has been fully documented and is thus released. ×
postponed If an unfinished use case is not being updated for several months and no members of the community have expressed interest in following up with it, the use case will be listed as postponed.
