Prioritering av användningsfall: för arkitekturfokuserade, användningsfallsdrivna, iterativa och inkrementella processer

Denna rapport handlar om prioritering av användningsfall för användningsfallsdrivna, arkitekturfokuserade, iterativa och inkrementella processer som exempelvis Rational Unified Process. I många situationer måste man göra en avvägning av vilka användningsfall som är viktigast att implementera. Vid iterativ och inkrementell utveckling måste man alltid välja användningsfall till nästföljande iteration och vid resursbrist kan man tvingas välja bort något användningsfall. Syftet med detta arbete är att utreda vilka prioriteringsmetoder som finns tillgängliga, vilka faktorer som påverkar prioriteringen och hur dessa skall vägas mot varandra, samt föreslå eller utarbeta en praktiskt användbar prioriteringsmetod. Mitt vetenskapliga synsätt, för ett arbete av den här karaktären, är relativt hermeneutiskt.

Varför togs beslut om Sveriges första marina internationella insats i Libanon 2006?

Sverige har bidragit med trupp till internationella insatser sedan 1950-talet. Detta har gjorts med bidrag från framför allt markstridskrafter men även med luftstridskrafter. Det dröjer fram till 2006 innan beslut tas om en marin internationell insats i form av korvettförband som bidrag till FN-insatsen UNIFIL i Libanon. Denna insats har fram till idag följts av fyra marina insatser, en förlängning av UNIFIL i Libanon 2007 och tre insatser i Somalia under åren 2009-2013. Beslutet om den marina insatsen i Libanon är för marinen banbrytande.
