Enabling Collaboration in Distributed Requirements Management
V. Sinha, Bikram Sengupta, Satish Chandra · IEEE Software · 2006
Requirements management, one of the most collaboration-intensive activities in software development, presents significant difficulties when stakeholders are distributed, as in today's global projects. Because of inadequate social contact, geographically distributed practitioners without appropriate tool support have trouble gaining a consistent understanding of requirements or managing requirement changes. We can alleviate many of these difficulties by integrating collaboration support in practitioners' work environments. With these needs in mind, we developed a new collaborative tool named EGRET (eclipse-based global requirements tool) for distributed requirements management
