A mathematical approach (structure and patterns) to analysis and design. I am afraid I am not yet proficient enough to produce a model close to perfection.

That's one example, other examples: the restaurant being open daily from 07:00 am to 11:00 pm, a schedule event without professional or attendee. the dojo only being open when scheduled by a professional and a group of attendees squash courts being scheduled by attendees during the company's opening hours Some company owners regard the air-conditioning, parking lot, lockers and towel service as facilities as well. I find it difficult to get a grip on this part of my domain. Given the concept of bounded rationality I have to settle for a less perfect model and improve on it in upcoming iterations.
