Requirements engineering

Proceedings of the Conference on The Future of Software Engineering, 2000
This paper presents an overview of the field of software systems requirements engineering (RE). It describes the main areas of RE practice, and highlights some key open research issues for the future.

Requirements engineering standardization

Proceedings of IEEE International Conference on Requirements Engineering, 2002
As requirements engineering becomes more widespread, practitioners have learned what works and what does not work, as well as how to communicate among themselves and with other specialists, leading to standards development efforts and an increasing number of standards.

Metrics for requirements engineering

Journal of Systems and Software, 1995
Abstract Today's large software-intensive systems have critical quality requirements, limited budgets, and stringent development and maintenance schedules. It is therefore necessary to be able to objectively evaluate these systems during their development to determine whether they will meet requirements, schedule, and budget, to assist risk ...

Requirements for requirements engineering techniques

Proceedings of the Second International Conference on Requirements Engineering, 2002
The first argument presented is that if we have a clear understanding of the objectives of the requirements engineering (RE) process then we can identify what techniques we need. No single method or technique will be sufficient. The second argument is that a key objective of the RE process is to specify a system which will ultimately be successful ...

Requirements engineering with viewpoints

Software Engineering Journal, 1996
The requirements engineering process involves a clear understanding of the requirements of the intended system. This includes the services required of the system, the system users, its environment and associated constraints. This process involves the capture, analysis and resolution of many ideas, perspectives and relationships at varying levels of ...

Screenwriting for Requirements Engineers

IEEE Software, 2007
Writing good requirements is a skill - one that we can learn from other people who write for a living. In this issue, Barbara Norden describes how screenwriters do it and Sara Jones extrapolates some advice for requirements engineers.

Requirements Engineering Tools

IEEE Software, 2011
Requirements engineering (RE) tools are increasingly used to ease the RE processes and allow for more systematic and formalized handling of requirements, change management and traceability. For developers and companies evaluating the use of RE tools it is thus essential to know which RE processes are supported by tools and how they fit to their own ...

Effective requirements engineering

Proceedings of the ACM SIGAda annual international conference on SIGAda, 2010
Failures in systems closely correlate to shortcomings in the system's requirements. Some historic data suggests that requirements are responsible for nearly half of all system development failures. This is especially true for critical systems that are real-time and embedded.

Overlaps in Requirements Engineering

Automated Software Engineering, 1999
Although overlap between specifications—that is the incorporation of elements which designate common aspects of the system of concern—is a precondition for specification inconsistency, it has only been a side concern in requirements engineering research. This paper is concerned with overlaps.

Emotional requirements engineering

2011 IEEE 19th International Requirements Engineering Conference, 2011
This mini tutorial reviews application of psychological theories in requirements engineering. Theories from psychology of emotion and motivation are introduced and applied in a scenario-based process to analyse affective situations which might be produced by user-oriented RE.
