General Information
Overview
ISO/IEC TR 30194:2024 - Internet of things (IoT) and digital twin: Best practices for use case projects is a technical report that describes best practices for developing, structuring and maintaining use case projects. Its primary objective is to improve consistency of content across use case work, enable knowledge sharing between projects, and foster long‑term interoperability between tools that collect and maintain use cases. The report is intended for developers of use case projects, including those working in standardization.
Key topics and technical scope
ISO/IEC TR 30194:2024 focuses on practical guidance rather than prescriptive requirements. Major topics include:
- Conceptual models for use cases and use case templates (defining actors, roles, stakeholders and observable results).
- Use case project types and purposes - examples include study, guidance, business, expectation and system projects, with descriptions of applicability.
- Use case templates - structure and elements such as description blocks, predefined fields, instructions and samples to improve consistency and reusability.
- Project plans and governance - processes for use case initiative governance, template development and maintenance, and use case development and maintenance lifecycles.
- Interoperability goals - guidance meant to enable tool vendors and projects to exchange and maintain use cases consistently over time.
- Informative examples (Annex A) covering IoT, digital twin, AI and privacy for consumer goods to illustrate real‑world projects.
The report defines basic terms (actor, role, stakeholder, use case, use case template) and shows UML conceptual diagrams and recommended template structures. It is a Technical Report developed by ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 41 (IoT and Digital Twin).
Practical applications and users
This report is valuable for anyone creating, curating or standardizing use cases in IoT and digital twin contexts, including:
- System engineers and solution architects documenting system requirements and scenarios.
- Product and platform teams defining IoT or digital twin capabilities and integration scenarios.
- Standards developers and committees seeking harmonized methods to collect use cases across projects.
- Tool vendors and repository maintainers building interoperable use‑case management tools.
- Cross‑discipline teams working on AI, privacy, or domain‑specific IoT projects that need consistent use case artifacts.
Using ISO/IEC TR 30194 helps teams accelerate reuse, reduce ambiguity in requirements, and support future interoperability between tools and repositories.

INTRODUCTION
The concept of use cases was introduced in the 1980s in system engineering by Ivar Jacobson
[1] to enable the capture and specification of the requirements of a system, using textual,
structural, and visual modelling techniques. The practice of providing use cases has been
widely used at research level [2]. It has been nearly systematically used at standardization level
as shown in the following examples:
– methodology for use cases from IEC 62559 [3], [4], [5];
– use cases in the ambient assisted living (AAL) domain [6];
– use cases in the big data domain [7], including three iterations from NIST [8], [9], [10];
– use cases in the IoT domain [11];
– use cases in the AI domain [12], including a companion standard on security and
privacy [13];
– use cases in the digital twin domain [14];
– use cases in the blockchain domain [15];
– use cases on privacy-by-design in the consumer domain [16];
This document describes best practices for use case projects. It is structured as follows:
– Clause 5 provides an introduction on existing definitions (5.1), and specifies a conceptual
model of use cases.
– Clause 6 explains the purpose of use case projects (6.1), and provides examples of use
case projects (6.2).
– Clause 7 explains the purpose of use case templates (7.1), providing a conceptual model of
a use case template (7.2), and describing the content of a template: description blocks,
predefined fields, instructions, and samples (7.3).
– Clause 8 explains the purpose of use case project plans (8.1), covering the use case
initiative governance process (8.2), the template development process (8.3), the template
maintenance process (8.4), the use case development process (8.5), and the use case
maintenance process (8.6).
– Annex A provides examples of use case projects on IoT (Clause A.2), digital twins
(Clause A.3), artificial intelligence (Clause A.4), and privacy for consumer goods and
services (Clause A.5).

5.2 Conceptual model of a use case
The conceptual model of a use case is shown in Figure 1:
– a use case can include several interaction scenarios,
– a scenario involves actors with specific roles,
– a scenario is about a system of interest, and
– a scenario describes how a goal is attained.
Figure 1 – Conceptual model of use case
6 Use case projects
6.1 Purpose
Use case projects collect use cases in order to serve different goals:
a) study;
b) guidance;
c) expectation;
d) business;
e) system;
f) a use case project providing both justifications on expectations, arguments on business
goals, and arguments on a solution.
Use case projects are often followed by other projects.
g) ISO/IEC TR 30172:2023 [14] collects use cases on digital twin. ISO/IEC TR 30172:2023 has
been followed by ISO/IEC 30173:2023 [17], which focuses on terms and concepts. A future
project, ISO/IEC 30188, focuses on reference architecture.
6.2 Examples of use case projects
6.2.1 Study project
In a study project, use cases describe real implementations. The purpose of a study use case
is to provide insight on important building blocks (Figure 2).
EXAMPLE 1 ISO/IEC TR 22417:2017 [11] provides insight on IoT.
EXAMPLE 2 ISO/IEC TR 30172:2023 [14] provides insight on digital twins.
Figure 2 – Purpose of study use case
6.2.2 Guidance project
In a guidance project, use cases are examples, real or invented. The purpose of a guidance
use case is to provide guidance on the use of requirements (Figure 3).
EXAMPLE ISO/TR 31700-2:2023 [16] provides examples on the use of ISO 31700-1:2023 [18].
– 10 – ISO/IEC TR 30194:2024 © ISO/IEC 2024
Figure 3 – Purpose of guidance use case
6.2.3 Business project
In a business project, a business use case aims at describing business processes and business
role interactions, while remaining solution agnostic (Figure 4).
Figure 4 – Purpose of business case
6.2.4 Business expectation project
In a business expectation project, use cases provide justifications on a specific expectation
(Figure 5).
Figure 5 – Purpose of expectation use case
The purpose of an expectation project is to provide guidance on some specific stakeholder
expectations in a system of interest.
EXAMPLE ISO/IEC TR 27563:2023 [13] provides expectations on security and privacy related to the artificial
intelligence use cases of ISO/IEC TR 24030:2021 [12].
6.2.5 System project
In a system project, a system use case provides arguments on a solution to meet the goals of
a use case (Figure 6). A system use case aims at describing functional implementations of a
solution to meet business use case objectives
Figure 6 – Purpose of system use case
The conceptual model of a system use case is shown in Figure 7:
– a system use case describes solutions,
– a solution involves architecture descriptions,
– a solution is about a system of interest, and
– a solution describes how a business goal is met.
– 12 – ISO/IEC TR 30194:2024 © ISO/IEC 2024
Figure 7 – Conceptual model of system use case
The purpose of a system use case is to describe a solution.
EXAMPLE Annex C of ISO/IEC 20547-4:2020 [19] describes a solution for security and privacy in an automotive
big data environment.
7 Use case templates
7.1 Purpose
Use case templates enable unified descriptions of a collection of use cases.
EXAMPLE 1 ISO/IEC TR 24030:2021 [12] includes 132 use cases.
NOTE There can be as many templates as situations.
Use case templates enforce the use of a vocabulary based on the conceptual model of use case
(Figure 1). The use of a common vocabulary enables in turn the sharing a description resources.
EXAMPLE 2 Roles, goals, and keywords are terms that allow external resources to be shared.
Use case templates provide information on a domain.
EXAMPLE 3 IoT [11], digital twin [14], AI [12], integration of IoT and DLT/Blockchains [15], big data [7], and AAL
[6].
Information is provided in predefined fields.
EXAMPLE 4 Identification, scope and objectives, narrative, key performance indicators, actors, issues, relation with
other use cases, referenced standards, scenarios, security, privacy, trustworthiness, conformity aspects, use case
diagram, data flow diagram, sequence diagram.
Use case templates are constructed to enable relationships between use cases.
EXAMPLE 5 Use case A includes use case B.
EXAMPLE 6 Use case A extends use case B.
EXAMPLE 7 Use case A is a specialization of use case B.
7.2 Conceptual model of use case template
Figure 8 shows the conceptual model of a use case template:
– a use case template shapes the description of a use case;
– a use case template focuses on a domain, on one or several intended goals and several
topics;
– a use case template is guided by instructions and samples; and
– samples use template, domain and topic vocabulary.
NOTE 1 The template vocabulary can be based on a standard vocabulary.
NOTE 2 When a standard vocabulary is used, profiles or agreed subsets can be used.
EXAMPLE IoT is a domain, interoperability is a topic.

7.3 Template description
7.3.1 Overall structure
Figure 9 shows the structure of a use case template:
– a use case template includes one or more description blocks;
– a description block can include nested description blocks;
– a description block includes a title;
– a description block includes one or more predefined fields;
– a predefined field consists of a title, possibly some instruction, and possibly samples.

NOTE A description block title can be considered as a class while the field titles are the attributes of the description
block class.
Some description blocks can be categories. Figure 11 shows an example of categorized
description blocks, using IEC 62559-2 [4] use case template:
– general information is an empty description block which categorizes three description blocks
(use case identification, version management, scope and objective);
– the left part shows one category element (general information) and three description blocks,
• use case identification,
• version management, and
• scope and objective; and
– the right part shows the content of the three description blocks.
