Abstract
The design rationale component of software engineering is examined, and the Potts model (C. Potts, 1989) and its limitations are considered. Extensions to the Potts model and a schematic notation for it are proposed. A framework is proposed for capturing software design rationale using granularity hierarchies. The system shows the feasibility of the concept, but still requires user testing to evaluate its usability and expressiveness
