"Modelling temporal goals in runtime goal models" by Rebecca Morgan, Simon Pulawski et al.
Achieving real-time agility and adaptation with respect to changing requirements in existing IT infrastructure can pose a complex challenge. We describe a goal-oriented approach to manage this complexity. We argue that a goal-oriented perspective can form an effective basis for devising and deploying responses to changed requirements at runtime. We offer an extended vocabulary of goal types by presenting two novel conceptions: differential goals and integral goals, which we formalize in both linear-time and branching-time settings. We describe goal lifecycles and interactions and the extended ...
