Functional Requirements

["Bullard, Claude L (Len)" <clbullar@ingr.com>]

Primarily, the technologies to be applied dominate 
much of our thinking.  I am still unclear what the 
encapsulated roles of XML and RDF are in the HumanML 
systems.   However, functional requirements have not 
been discussed.  Here is a strawman for tasks which 
a HumanML system (an implementation using HumanML 
languages) can/should do:

1.    Identify emerging HumanML stereotypes.
2.	Identify emerging behavior patterns.
3.	Correlate stereotypes and instances of sterotypes with acts.
4.	Construct role-based stereotypes given some set of actions.
5.	Identify contexts for stereotypical actions.
6.	Track and forecast action trends.
7.	Develop statistical summaries and exception reports.
8.	Produce analyses of actions.
9.	Evaluate alternative responses to some action or message.
10.	Enable a means to alert a user to a potential problem 
      in a given communication or action.
