Awareness requirements for adaptive systems
Vítor E. Silva Souza, Alexei Lapouchnian, William N. Robinson, John Mylopoulos · 2011
Recently, there has been a growing interest in self-adaptive systems. Roadmap papers in this area point to feedback loops as a promising way of operationalizing adaptivity in such systems. In this paper, we define a new type of requirement - called Awareness Requirement - that can refer to other requirements and their success/failures. We propose a way to elicit and formalize such requirements and offer a requirements monitoring framework to support them.
