Continuous Requirements Engineering

Published: 23 June 2017 Publication History

Abstract

The paper presents fractal functional architecture of the FREEDOM framework of continuous requirements engineering and illustrates its applicability using three methods of continuous requirements engineering. The fractal architecture of the continuous requirements engineering framework assists in representing scalability in requirements engineering. It also supports flexibility of requirements engineering by providing the ability to adjust to different systems development contexts, different software engineering approaches, and different requirements handling methods.
