ANALYSIS STYLES FOR REQUIREMENTS ENGINEERING: AN ORGANIZATIONAL PERSPECTIVE
Manuel Kolp, T. Tung, Stéphane Faulkner · WORLD SCIENTIFIC eBooks · 2005
Early requirements analysis is concerned with modeling and understanding the organizational context within which a software system will eventually function. This chapter proposes organizational styles motivated by organizational theories intended to facilitate the construction of organizational models. These styles are defined from real world organizational settings, modeled in i * and formalized using the Formal Tropos language. Additionally, the chapter evaluates the proposed styles using desirable qualities such as coordinability and predictability. The research is conducted in the context of Tropos, a comprehensive software system development methodology.
