Abstract

Several approaches have been developed to clearly identify software system requirements that satisfy their stakeholders and can be implemented, deployed and maintained. These approaches can be distinguished from one another. Indeed, some of them focus on goals and how to achieve them, others focus on scenarios and illustrations, others rely on stakeholders’ viewpoints, and so on. Nevertheless, these approaches rely on more or less shared concepts. In this paper, we build graphs that represent some of these approaches. Then we compare these approaches by computing and analysing similarities between the graphs vertices. As a result, we put forward the core concepts needed in requirements engineering. This will pave the way for a unified model that will provide flexible software requirements identification, management and changes.
