  domain engineering
  
     <systems analysis> 1. The development and evolution of
     domain specific knowledge and artifacts to support the
     development and evolution of systems in the domain.  Domain
     engineering includes engineering of domain models,
     components, methods and tools and may also include asset management
     .
  
     2. The engineering process of analysing and modelling a
     domain, designing and modelling a generic solution
     architecture for a product line within that domain,
     implementing and using reusable components of that
     architecture and maintaining and evolving the domain,
     architecture and implementation models.
  
     3. A reuse-based approach to defining the scope (domain definition
     ), specifying the structure (domain architecture)
     and building the Assets (requirements, designs, software code,
     documentation) for a class of systems, subsystems or
     applications.  Domain engineering can include domain
     definition, domain analysis, developing the domain
     architecture domain implementation.
