This makes effects of design changes easy to see quickly. Hundreds of design cycles are now possible and flaws introduced by design changes can be caught immediately. DOME is not prescriptive, requires little overhead for adoption, and supports a heterogeneous modeling environment. Users can work the way they currently do. No special skills or custom programming is involved.
Experts are the individuals who create the design models.
Experts decide what parts of the model users should have access to. Experts specify the inputs and outputs of the model using a process which is easy to learn and takes very little time to do. Administrators publish DOME models Models are made available on a DOME server. Administrators may set access permissions on models. Models available through DOME may be accessed anywhere by users with Internet access and a java-enabled web browser.
