Abstract :
Two methods of gathering system requirements from groups of users are discussed. One method can be used anywhere, while the other requires some specific computer hardware and software. This latter, high-tech method has built into it a technique for prioritizing identified requirements. Also presented is an additional low-tech technique for gaining group consensus that can be used in any requirements-gathering setting
