User characteristics

First user group of the tool is research personnel, who are familiar with the DTW algorithm. This user group needs especially a logging feature.

Another user group is research personnel who use the tool in learning the method. For this user group, the tool must contain a clear GUI with possibility to plot the observation and template vectors and the warping path on the screen.

The third user group which has to be considered during the software project are other software engineers who do further development of the tool. To make further development as easy as possible, the software must be well documented.
