Current Reality Tree
A paper-based illustration representing Event Modeling with its core stages and visible working result.
Knowledge Modeling
Event Modeling
Purposedifferent
A Current Reality Tree condenses many symptoms into a few causal chains. The method makes visible which core problems drive several negative effects at once.Event Modeling connects business workflows with commands, events, and views into one coherent mental model. It helps design behavior, UI, and technical slices from the same underlying logic.
