Part of the Aesop's Fables project. In Construction.
Six types of nodes have been identified in the GOTSEC model: goals, obstacles, tasks, side effects, characters and character families or sets. These elements are connected by relations of various types: reaching (from task to goal), hindering (from obstacle to task), collateral (from task to side effect), inhibiting (from goal to obstacle), exciting (idem), needing (from side effect to goal), satisfy-ing/unsatisfying (from goal to character), belonging (from character to character fami-ly), failing (from task to obstacle), weak success (from obstacle to goal), degradation (from task to character).
The following tables specifies the nodes and relations in the model.
