Requirements Engineering is considered as one of the most critical phases of a software development project. Low-quality requirements are a major reason for the failure of a project. Consequently, techniques are needed that help to improve the support of stakeholders in the development of requirements models as well as in the process of deciding about the corresponding release plans. In this pa...

Requirements managers aim at keeping their sets of requirements well-defined, consistent and up to date throughout a project’s life cycle. Semantic web technologies have found many valuable applications in the field of requirements engineering, with most of them focusing on requirements analysis. However the usability of results originating from such requirements analyses strongly depends on th...

Requirements engineering in the context of off-the-shelf component-based system development is a difficult issue. Most actual approaches are not requirements-driven, which does not allow to gain a great customer acceptance. Otherwise, they have difficulties getting a natural matching between customer requirements and component features, which does not facilitate the user involvement. The paper ...

Requirements Elicitation requires a data scientist to communicate with a customer. A typical result of a requirements elicitation process in Software Engineering is an SRS (System Requirements Specification) document. For Data Science projects, there may not be an explicit need for a formal written SRS. However, it may be benefitial to record observations made during the process, if without the...

The purpose of this research was analyzing knowledge of rural cooperatives managers in Khouzestan province toward electronic commerce, Iran. The research method was correlative descriptive. The population of this study included rural cooperatives managers in Khuzestan province. The total number of members was 101 people. Due to the limited population, census method was used. Questionnaire relia...

Multiple-viewed requirements modeling allows modelers to elicit the requirements of a system from different viewpoints. Requirements are then organized and encoded in different analysis models which collaboratively form an overall understanding of the system. Model transformations among those analysis models at this stage can be used as a way to acquire requirements knowledge, thus making the s...

Creativity has been the subject of considerable research over the last 60 years. This keynote will argue that most requirements work is creative but not recognized as such. It will summarize recent applications of creativity theories and techniques to requirements work, then posit the general case that most requirements activities involve information search and idea discovery, and hence can be ...
