Abstract :
In the past years pervasive devices, especially mobile phones, have increased in complexity. Particularly the proliferation of features is tough to handle, not least because new features might require a hardware update or conflict with existing features. In order to overcome these issues we propose an approach which tackles the problem at an early development phase by increasing the semantic requirement specification. This work in progress paper proposes an idea where two methodologies for describing a system during the specification phase are combined to complement each other to improve the software development process of mobile phones, allowing to detect if required features are included in the user interface definition.
