Abstract :
A methodology for library design is outlined and it is implemented for the domain of discrete event simulations. The top-down approach consists of five stages: state the users´ needs, state the general goals for the library, derive the requirements of goals, list opposing requirements and resolve contradictions by analyzing requirements in view of users´ needs and the domain, or by conducting field studies with prospective users
