Requirements Engineering is one of the most important phases in any product development life cycle since it is the basis for the complete software or product design and realization. Therefore in a worst case scenario any error within a requirement can result in a project loss. Computer support for requirement engineers is still premature as most RE applications can not cope with more sophistica...

Languages for aspect-oriented programming (AOP) [5], such as AspectJ, are now popular, and the concepts used by the AOP community such as join points, pointcuts and advices are well-known. At the same time, in recent years, the aspect oriented software development (AOSD) approach has been developing itself beyond the programming activity. More particularly, the Early Aspects Initiative [9] advo...

There is a general consensus on the importance of good Requirements Engineering (RE) for achieving high quality software. The modeling and analysis of requirements have been the main challenges during the development of complex systems. Although semi-formal, scenario driven approaches have raised the awareness and use of requirement engineering techniques, mostly because of their intuitive repr...
