Abstract


This work presents a process focused on the selection of the requirements elicitation technique. In an attempt to ensure that the relevant system requirements are correctly and completely elicited, a set of techniques can be applied aiming at helping the analysts and users identify and define these requirements. However, the elicitation is not simply the application of a technique but also the cooperation between analysts and clients. This paper presents a requirements elicitation process that focuses on aiding analysts selecting the best elicitation technique to be used in that particular project. The process also includes activities and artifacts to achieve greater collaboration among those involved in the elicitation.
Keywords: Requirements Elicitation, Technique, Colaborative work
