Abstract :
The complexities associated with managing requirements for building systems within systems, interconnected and networked systems, and systems communicating with each other across many distributed types of environments has long since been recognized. However, dealing with the process of requirements engineering for these types of systems is still a serious concern for most complex projects, given the various types of system development paradigms that are carried out today, and the rapid evolution of requirements at various phases of the project. In order to obtain optimal requirements that reflect the characteristics of and constraints imposed by systems of systems, there needs to be an appropriate requirements engineering process in place. In this paper, the authors present several considerations for an ideal, generic requirements engineering process model that would be helpful in guiding the requirements engineering process for the development of systems of systems.
