Preface
In an era where data drives decisions, the need for precision and clarity in modeling information has never been greater. CaseTalk provides a powerful solution rooted in the Fully Communication-Oriented Information Modeling (FCO-IM) approach, enabling professionals to capture and structure knowledge exactly as it is communicated. Unlike traditional modeling methods that rely on abstraction and interpretation, CaseTalk respects the original verbalizations of domain experts. It allows users to model facts directly from language, ensuring that the meaning of information remains intact from initial analysis through to implementation.
This tutorial introduces you to the fundamental concepts behind FCO-IM and the practical application of CaseTalk. You will learn how to extract facts from natural language, validate them with stakeholders, and transform them into coherent, structured models. The focus lies not only on technical accuracy but also on fostering a shared understanding between business and IT. Whether you are new to fact-oriented modeling or looking to deepen your knowledge, this guide offers a step-by-step approach to mastering CaseTalk and creating models that truly reflect the world they describe.
