چکیده

To ensure legal compliance, requirements engineers need tools to validate existing requirements for compliance with relevant law. This paper proposes an approach to aid in validating software requirements for legal compliance. The approach employs a production rule model for the United States Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) that can be queried by requirements engineers as they validate and refine software requirements. In this paper, we discuss a case study in which we applied the approach to evaluate the iTrust Medical Records System requirements for HIPAA compliance. We were able to identify 12 new potential requirements beyond the original 63 functional requirements, as well as operationalize one nonfunctional requirement.
