Improving Requirements Quality in Digital Libraries: The Case of Scientific Proceedings
Neide Ferreira Alves, Maria Lencastre, Rafael Dueire Lins · 2012
Proceedings of technical events, postgraduate theses, and technical reports in many different areas of knowledge witness the history of the development of that area; The experience gained in the development of digital libraries may be used in the documents domain to help building similar systems achieving higher quality standards, at the same time as reducing the time and costs needed in the creation of a new system. This paper describes and systematizes a methodology to give support for the requirements definition in the Digital Library Domain (specifically the ones built for scientific proceedings), based on the experience of three document processing platforms. The aim is to describe a general structure and requirements to guide system developers on how to build other similar digital libraries, either from printed or from electronic documents.
