An agent-oriented approach to requirements engineering

The chaos all through the development of requirements evolves due to disparity between users and developers resulting in project devastations and terminations. Business and product requirements often change as development proceeds, making a straight-line path to requirements engineering impracticable. Considering the adaptable nature of requirements and multi-dimensional concerns of stakeholders, spiral model based proposed framework bridges the gap between users and developers by extending an agent oriented approach to requirements engineering. Requirements encapsulated in the form of User Story Cards signify user oriented view of requirements, whilst Agent Cards facilitate developers in observing the requirements of a system in terms of software agents. Negotiation process obtains an integrated view of all stakeholders over conflicting requirements that leads to ascertain correct, prioritized and comprehensive list of requirements.
