Abstract
This paper describes a language that is intended to support software engineers in the development of information systems throughout the software lifecycle. This language is not a programming language. Following the example of a number of other software engineering projects, our work is based on the premise that information system development is knowledge-intensive and that the primary responsibility of any language intended to support this task is to be able to formally represent the relevant knowledge.
