  • In the current software project, it is still very difficult to extract and define clear requirements in the requirement engineering. Informal requirements documents based on natural language can be interpreted in different meanings depending on the degree of understanding or maturity level of the requirements analyst. Also, Furthermore, as the project progresses, requirements continue to change from the customer. This change in requirements is a catastrophic failure from a management perspective in software projects. In the situation of frequent requirements changes, a current issue of requirements engineering area is how to make clear requirements with unclear and ambigousrequirements. To solve this problem, we propose to extract and redefine clear requirements by incorporating Design Thinking methodologies into requirements engineering. We expect to have higher possibilities to improve software quality by redefining requirements that are ambiously and unclearly defined.

  • One of the most important prerequisites for a successful software process is the collaboration and software requirements negotiation of all stakeholders in the software development process. Remote users using computer networks can negotiate software requirements by computer supported system, and can share their informations. The goal of software requirements negotiation system is an integration of all win conditions and an agreement after resolution of conflicts. The existing systems need an exclusive system and must be dependent on specific platform and network. Users must have the knowledge of all stakeholder's status and use homogeneous collaborating applications. This paper presents the Web-based software requirements negotiation system for the purpose of resolution of the existing systems' problems. The Web-based software requirements negotiation system can be driven by WinWin Spiral model, and it is based on hybrid execution method. The proposed system is validated and tested on heterogeneous environments.

  • The subject of "Design Requirements" (DR) is central to the design of software and engineering systems. The main reason for this is that quality aspects are usually closely tied to requirements, among other things. In this review paper, we consider how the subject of requirements is being managed in these two seemingly different design disciplines. Two important aspects are covered, namely: (a) requirements development, describing various activities leading to requirements documentation, and (b) requirements change management, describing various activities needed for the proper treatment of the inevitable changes in requirements. Similarities and differences on how these two aspects are handled in software and engineering systems are highlighted. It is concluded from this literature survey that the management of software requirements is quite coherent and well established as a science. On the other hand, management of engineering systems requirements suffer from being unstructured, in particular when requirements changes are involved. Important gaps and future important research areas are identified.

  • 현재 소프트웨어 개발 공정이 복잡해짐에 따라 개발하는 소프트웨어의 요구사항 역시 복잡해지고 있으며 요구사항 관리에 많은 노력이 소요되고 있다. 그러나 소프트웨어의 요구사항을 처음부터 모두 정의하는 것은 사실상 불가능하며, 개발이 진행되면서 환경은 변하기 마련이다. 또한 요구사항 변경은 개발보다 많은 비용이 소요되므로 체계적인 변경 관리를 통해 변경에 민첩하게 대응하고 관리되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 소프트웨어 프로덕트 라인에서 요구사항 변경 관리 프로세스를 기반으로 체계적인 요구사항 변경 관리 방법을 제시한다. 소프트웨어 프로덕트 라인(software product lines)에서 어플리케이션의 요구사항은 도메인 요구사항과 밀접하게 관련되어 있으므로 어플리케이션 공학(application engineering) 단계에서 요구사항 변경이 발생했을 경우 도메인 공학(domain engineering) 단계를 이용하여 변경을 분석하고 관리하는 방법을 제시한다. 이러한 일관된 변경 관리를 통해 변경 범위를 분석하고, 변경 대처방안을 제시함으로써 변경 처리 결정을 내리는데 도움을 주며 한번 요청된 변경이 완벽하게 처리되도록 도와주어 같은 변경의 반복 요청을 막을 수 있기 때문에 잠재된 변경 비용을 절약할 수 있다.

  • User satisfaction has always been important in the success of software, regardless of whether it is closed and proprietary or open source software (OSS). OSS users are geographically distributed and include technical as well as novice users. However, it is generally believed that if OSS was more usable, its popularity would increase tremendously. Hence, users and their requirements need to be addressed in the priorities of an OSS environment. Online public forums are a major medium of communication for the OSS community. The research model of this work studies the relationship between user requirements in open source software and online public forums. To conduct this research, we used a dataset consisting of 100 open source software projects in different categories. The results show that online forums play a significant role in identifying user requirements and addressing their requests in open source software.

  • The protection of nuclear safety software is essential in that a failure can result in significant economic loss and physical damage to the public. However, software security has often been ignored in nuclear safety software development. To enforce security considerations, nuclear regulator commission recently issued and revised the security regulations for nuclear computer-based systems. It is a great challenge for nuclear developers to comply with the security requirements. However, there is still no clear software development process regarding security activities. This paper proposes an integrated development process suitable for the secure development requirements and system security requirements described by various regulatory bodies. It provides a three-stage framework with eight security activities as the software development process. Detailed descriptions are useful for software developers and licensees to understand the regulatory requirements and to establish a detailed activity plan for software design and engineering.

  • As the importance of non-functional requirements has increased, many researchers have become interested in the software development process for non-functional requirements including the notation, modeling, and assessment of non-functional requirements. However, the characteristics of non-functional requirements are so sophisticated and there are many topics which have not been solved until now. In order to address one of the unsolved problems, we propose a systematic software development process to support the management of non-functional requirements. The process consists of six steps, each of which is composed of detailed activities. Using the proposed process, the non-functional requirements can be managed and modeled more effectively and systematically than previous ones.

  • In the 4th industrial revolution, there are many projects for diverse software applications of smart city environments. Most of the stakeholders focus on considering software quality for their developed software. Nobody doesn't guarantee requirement satisfaction after complete development. At this time, we can only work on user acceptance testing for requirement satisfaction on frequently changing requirements. Why keeps the requirement traceability? This traceability is to identify risks related to requirements, to assure correct software development based on customer requirements. To solve this, we are researching how to implement requirement traceability across each artifact's relationship to each activity of a whole development lifecycle.

  • 산출물들의 추적 관계 정의를 이용한 요구사항 추적을 통해, 기존의 컴포넌트 자체의 재사용뿐만 아니라 컴포넌트 개발과정에서 나오는 다양한 산출물들을 요구사항 기반으로 재사용할 수 있다. 이러한 재사용성 증가를 목적으로 하는 요구사항추적을 지원하기 위해서는 산출물들이 요구사항을 기반으로 표현될 수 있어야 하고, 표현된 요구사항을 기반으로 하여 추적관계를 추론하는 메커니즘이 제공되어야 한다. 이를 위해, 본 논문에서는 시맨틱스 기반의 요구사항추적을 지원하기 위해서 요구사항 온톨로지를 하여 기술한다. 그 다음에 산출물들이 요구사항 온톨로지를 통해서 시맨틱 태깅되는 기술을 기술한다. 본 논문은 이와 같이 요구사항 추적을 위한 메커니즘을 제안하고, 요구사항 온톨로지의 구조를 정의하며 프로토타입을 제시한다.

  • 무인항공기 사고 발생 시 사후 조사를 위한 비행자료 기록장치는 항공기 추락에 따른 극한환경에 노출된 후 비행자료를 정상 복원할 수 있도록 EUROCAE(European Organization for Civil Aviation Equipment)의 ED-112 규격을 준수하여야 한다. ED-112 규격은 유인항공기를 포함한 모든 항공기의 일반적인 요구사항을 규정하고 있기 때문에 특정 플랫폼의 형상 및 운용개념에 따라 적합한 설계 요구사항을 선택적으로 적용하여야 하므로 소프트웨어에 대한 세부 요구사항 분석이 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 무인항공기에 적합한 소프트웨어 요구사항을 분석하고 이를 고려한 비행자료 기록장치 소프트웨어의 설계 방안을 제안한다. 또한 구현된 소프트웨어가 모든 요구사항을 고려하여 설계되었는지 확인하기 위한 각 요구사항에 대한 소프트웨어 검증 방안을 제시한다.
