Third International Workshop on Managing Requirements Knowledge, Sydney, Australia
The event will focus on the possibilities and benefits of lightweight knowledge management approaches as applied to requirements engineering. Novel ideas, emerging methodologies, frameworks and tools, as well as industrial experiences for capturing, representing, sharing and reusing tacit knowledge in requirements engineering processes, will be on the agenda.
Research has shown that the capturing and sharing of tacit knowledge has a number of benefits, including: enhancing reuse, enabling traceability, supporting requirement evolution and improving collaboration between participants in distributed projects.
At present, requirements engineering processes and tools do not give enough room for managing requirements knowledge. With increasing distribution, scale and complexity of development projects, the need for managing requirements knowledge continues to increase.
A major constraint, though, is to have a lightweight, usable, intelligent, contextualised and personalised capturing and sharing approach. Requirement engineering infrastructures should gather and formalise tacit knowledge and stakeholders should be able to answer questions about requirements at any time, using their common vocabularies.
The workshop is designed to provide an interactive exchange platform between the knowledge management community, requirements engineering community and industrial practitioners.For further information, please visit:
