Automated Completeness Check in KAOS

摘要

KAOS is a popular and useful goal oriented requirements engineering (GORE) language, which can be used in business requirements modelling, specification, and analysis. Currently, KAOS is being used in areas such as business process modelling, and enterprise architecture (EA). But, an incomplete or malformed KAOS model can result to incomplete and erroneous requirements analysis, which in turn can lead to overall systems failure . Therefore, it is necessary to check that a requirements specification in KAOS language are complete and well formed. The contribution at hand is to provide an automated technique for checking the completeness and well-formed-ness of a requirements specification in KAOS language. Such a technique can be useful, especially to business or requirements analysts in industries and research, to check that requirements specification in KAOS language is well formed.
