Abstract :
This short tutorial introduces the fundamental activities of RE (requirements engineering) and discusses how it has evolved as a part of the software engineering process. However, rather than focusing on the established RE techniques, the author discusses how the changing nature of software engineering has led to the new challenges in RE. The author then introduces a number of new techniques that helps us to meet these challenges by integrating RE more closely with other systems implementation activities.
