Directions in Requirements Engineering
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we review current requirements engineering (RE) research and identify future research directions suggested by emerging software needs. First, we overview the state of the art in RE research. The research is considered with respect to technologies developed to address specific requirements tasks, such as elicitation, modeling, and analysis. Such a review enables us to identify mature areas of research, as well as areas that warrant further investigation. Next, we review several strategies for performing and extending RE research results, to help delineate the scope of future research directions. Finally, we highlight what we consider to be the “hot” current and future research topics, which aim to address RE needs for emerging systems of the future.

This mini tutorial explains the concepts and process of scenario based requirements engineering. Definitions of scenarios are reviewed, with their informal and more formal representations, and roles in the requirements process. The relationships between scenarios, specifications and prototypes is explored, and set in the perspective of human reasoning about requirements. Methods for scenario ba...
متن کاملRethinking Security Requirements in RE Research Technical Report
As information security became an increasing concern for software developers and users, requirements engineering (RE) researchers brought new insight to security requirements. Security requirements aim to address security at the early stages of system design while accommodating the complex needs of different stakeholders. Meanwhile, other research communities, such as usable privacy and securit...
