Specifying semantic information on functional requirements
Wuping Yao · Tampere University Institutional Repository (Tampere University) · 2012
Requirements engineering is a challenging process in software development projects. Requirements, in general, are documented in natural language. They often have issues related to ambiguity, completeness and consistency. How to improve the quality of requirements documentation remains a classic research topic. This research aims at improving the way of editing and documenting functional requirements. We propose a meta-model to specify the semantic information of functional requirements, and deploy it in the customized wiki platform named Semantic REWiki to support requirements specification. Taken advantage of the collaborative and open feature of a wiki, Semantic REWiki can improve the unambiguousness, completeness and consistency of semantic information specification for functional requirements.
