Effective Requirement Engineering Process Model in Software Engineering

Abstract

Requirement Engineering is regarded as one of the major stages in software development and management. The aim of requirement engineering is to analyse, investigate, document and check the services and also the constraints of the software system that is being developed. The world of requirement management has increasingly developed over the years and has become the cornerstone for any software development to be successful, therefore it is vital for every organization to consider and pay more attention to the requirement engineering if they intend to build a quality software product that will satisfy the users. Different viewpoints, objectives, roles and responsibilities are all incorporated into requirements engineering which makes it a difficult and complex process in software engineering. Many researchers have come up with different optimized approaches to the requirement engineering. This paper reviewed relevant literature from Elsevier, Emerald, IEEE, ProQuest and Google Scholar databases. Requirement engineering processes are further outlined and explained which include requirement elicitation and development, validation and verification etc. In conclusion, the paper recommends effective requirements engineering process to adopt depending on the industry's goal.
