Which Roles Ontologies play on Software Requirements Engineering? A Systematic Review

摘要

One of the main goals of Software Requirements Engineering is to understand customers' needs. However, some of the main flaws of Requirements Engineering are the lack of a common vocabulary, communications difficulty among stakeholders and the lack of domain comprehension of the problem domain in order to solve it. Ontologies have played a highly versatile role in the solution of these issues. The aim of this paper is to present a systematic review, identifying which roles ontologies play are on Software Requirements Engineering. This systematic review has identified 2407 distinct papers. Using the application of exclusion criteria, 60 papers have remained and were analyzed.
