'Requirements Engineering (RE) as a discipline is still immature. There is a large amount of literature covering distinct facets and individual contributions. This book draws all this material together and provides overviews of RE and process-centered engineering environments (PCEEs). Key features of the book are: Provision of a comprehensive framework for RE (using four 'worlds' and three dimensions) · Modelling of creative processes Integration of tools into the process Provision of a framework for requirements traceability The architecture for implementing a PCEE Definition of a trace repository The contextual process modelling approach allows guidance and control of process execution within a process-centered environment. Requirements traceability is supported by (almost) automated recording of process traces, enabling selective retrieval of the traces and appropriate use of trace information during process execution. The methods described thus establish the foundation for experience-based process improvement, and show the advantages of using a process-oriented environment to achieve good RE results.
