Hello Paolo,
you are right, neither of both terms is (really) defined. As I understand the difference is:
- target end-user: the anticipated, prototypical user (persona)... good place to link some user modelling references.
- end-user: the actual user as observed at runtime (preferably instance of a target-user)
Thank you for pointing it out, we'll discuss this terms in next Friday's call.
Best regards
Jaroslav
