Abstract
The analysis of application for software development is usually guided and, hence, constrained by concepts and constructs of structured and object-oriented programming languages. It produces an analysis model that bears no essential difference from a software design. Here, we introduce an ontological Weltanschauung in application analysis for understanding essentials and novelties, which are obscured in structured and object-oriented methods of application analysis. The ontological viewpoint is reified with a systemic framework, or simply an ontology, which can be related to software design. Thus, we can apply ontological analysis in software development.
