A method for requirements elicitation using a domain model

摘要

Proposes a method that allows specifications to be described by as wide a range of people as possible. For that purpose, it is necessary to have support systems that enable the easy input of requirements and that provide complete specification generation mechanisms from the input requirements. In most cases, specialists describe specifications by applying common knowledge that is independent of individual requirements to satisfy the given requirements. This common knowledge is stored beforehand as a domain model. It is then used to automatically generate the application knowledge capable of satisfying the input requirements. In our method, designers can input their requirements using partial information since information needed to complete specifications is supplemented. A number of theoretical tests confirm that the method is effective.
