چکیده

This paper summarizes the main achievements of a research whose main goal was to investigate the current state-of-art in the field of requirements engineering for COTS-based systems. For this purpose, we have reviewed the most relevant contributions in this field over the last 10 years have been considered. After analyzing these research contributions, we defined a scenario composed by a number of punctual but relevant contributions and a number of methodological approaches coping with the requirements definitions for such systems. Finally, on the basis of this scenario, a Wish List of desirable features of a hypothetical approach has been defined and compared against the current situation. This list may act as an empirical means for evaluating new approaches addressing RE for COTS-based systems, and bases its foundations on the current needs pointed out by the major experts in this field.

Requirements engineering for COTS based systems

In spite of the increasing use of COTS products for system development, there is little consideration on how to acquire requirements for COTS products, how to select COTS components and how to assemble them to comply to these requirements. The paper addresses the issue of the requirements engineering process for COTS components acquisition and assembly. It proposes an approach based on the noti...

Construction of a Taxonomy for Requirements Engineering Commercial-Off-The-Shelf Components

This article presents a procedure for constructing a taxonomy of COTS products in the field of Requirements Engineering (RE). The taxonomy and the obtained information reach transcendental benefits to the selection of systems and tools that aid to RE-related actors to simplify and facilitate their work. This taxonomy is performed by means of a goal-oriented methodology inspired in GBRAM (Goal-B...

Flow-Service-Quality (FSQ) Requirements Engineering For High-Assurance Systems

Modern society could hardly function without the largescale, network-centric information systems that pervade government, defense, and industry. These systems exhibit shifting boundaries, often-unknown component behavior, constantly varying function and usage, and pervasive asynchronous operations. Their complexity challenges intellectual control, and their survivability has become an urgent pr...
