Target Process Analyses for the Preparation of Software Projects
David Kuhlen · International Journal of Research Publication and Reviews · 2025
The subject of this paper is the application of target process analyses in requirements engineering.While target process analyses are used in practice, they are generally not a mandatory step in the standard requirements engineering process.Based on a survey, the paper first examines the use of target process analyses.Subsequently, a possible procedure for conducting such an analysis is presented.The study concludes that target process analyses must be conducted iteratively, as the resulting insights-aligned with the purpose of requirements engineering-lead to refinements of the process model.This requires a clear definition of objectives in advance.The survey revealed that this is, in fact, a key purpose of target process analysis.
