Hypermedia-based Support for Requirements Analysis: Promise and Problems
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes our efforts at providing hypermedia-based support for requirements analysis. We present: an overview of our concept of hypermedia-based support for the requirements analysis process; our experiences using this technology; and some remaining technological challenges highlighted by our experiences. Our analysis of requirements analyst's needs indicates several productivity related benefits will result from the successful application of hypermedia technologies especially in rapid prototyping contexts. These relate to hypermedia's ability to more faithfully capture and represent system requirements, providing increased requirements traceability and giving analysts direct, repeatable access to multimedia requirements information that would otherwise be unavailable.

Hypermedia support for argumentation-based rationale: 15 years on from gIBIS and QOC
Having developed, used and evaluated some of the early IBIS-based approaches to design rationale (DR) such as gIBIS and QOC in the late 1980s/mid-1990s, we describe the subsequent evolution of the argumentation-based paradigm through software support, and perspectives drawn from modeling and meeting facilitation. Particular attention is given to the challenge of negotiating the overheads of cap...
