    A review on tool supports for security requirements engineering

    No full text
    Capturing the right security requirements is crucial when developing a security software. Poor elicited security requirements can lead to a failure in software development, thus it needs to be accurately defined. This study evaluates various security requirement engineering tools and analyses the existing gaps in security requirement engineering tools. Based on a literature search conducted manually, we report our findings from the review and analysis of different studies of security requirements engineering tool. Consequently, the gaps and motivations found from this literature study are discussed. Future directions of this study is to develop a more useful tool that can perform a better function in capturing security requirements are also discussed

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Automatic Acceptance Test Case Generation From Essential Use Cases

    Requirements validation is a crucial process to determine whether client-stakeholders’ needs and expectations of a product are sufficiently correct and complete. Various requirements validation techniques have been used to evaluate the correctness and quality of requirements, but most of these techniques are tedious, expensive and time consuming. Accordingly, most project members are reluctant to invest their time and efforts in the requirements validation process.Moreover, automated tool supports that promote effective collaboration between the client-stakeholders and the engineers are still lacking. In this paper, we describe a novel approach that combines prototyping and test-based requirements techniques to improve the requirements validation process and promote better communication and collaboration between requirements engineers and clientstakeholders. To justify the potential of this prototype tool, we also present three types of evaluation conducted on the prototpye tool, which are the usability survey, 3-tool comparison analysis and expert reviews

    THE NEEDS OF CLINICAL DOMAIN LIBRARY FOR ELICITING ACCURATE CLINICAL REQUIREMENTS

    Full text link
    Issues in misinterpretation of terms and miscommunication with stakeholders still persist although there are various approaches and tools available to elicit and capture accurate requirements. Specifically in healthcare domain, these issues need serious attention considering that there are myriad complex medical terminologies, unfamiliar to most requirements engineers. Further, accurate terms and words need to be captured as misinterpretations in eliciting requirements may lead to harmful consequences to human’s lives and well-being. This paper presents two preliminary studies that compare the difficulties in eliciting clinical and business requirements. Based on a survey conducted with 20 respondents, it was found that eliciting clinical functional requirements is more difficult than the business requirements. Similar findings were also drawn from interviews conducted with 5 experienced requirements engineers. They also claimed that a clinical domain library could help them to elicit accurate functional requirements. The domain library should also have e several functions that can be used to facilitate the elicitation of accurate functional requirements

    A Pair-oriented Requirements Engineering Approach for Analysing Multi-lingual Requirements

    Requirements written in multiple languages can lead to errorproneness,inconsistency and incorrectness. In a Malaysian setting, software engineers are exposed to both Malay and English requirements. This can be a challenging task for them especially when capturing and analyzing requirements. Further, they face difficulties to model requirements using semi-formal or formal models. This paper introduces a new approach, Pair-Oriented Requirements Engineering (PORE) that uses an Essential Use Case (EUC) model to capture and analyze multi-lingual requirements. This approach is intended to assist practitioners in developing correct and consistent requirements as well as developing teamwork skills. Two quasi-experiment studies involving 80 participants in the first study and 38 participants in a subsequent study were conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of this approach with respect to correctness and time spent in capturing multi-lingual requirements. It was found that PORE improves accuracy and hence helps users perform better in developing high quality requirements models

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Full text link
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
