A requirements engineering methodology based on natural language syntax and semantics
Marinos G. Georgiades, Andreas S. Andreou, Constantinos S. Pattichis · 2005
The present paper proposes a methodology for engineering requirements in a precise, comprehensive, understandable and time-saving way based on concepts and principles of natural language syntax and semantics (NLSS). The NLSS methodology copes with the following phases: (i) requirements discovery, by emphasizing on the creation and application of specific questions sets; (ii) requirements analysis, by stressing issues such as classification, decomposition and terminology of requirements; and (iii) requirements specification, by focusing on the writing formalization of the requirements.
