Extended Mind Map for Software Requirement Specification

초록

Requirement elicitation, analysis, and specification have been proven to be very important stages in a software development process. Software requirements are first gathered from different stakeholders through series of meetings and discussions, then analyzed and specified. Currently, requirements are often specified in natural language which is prone to produce ambiguity, misunderstanding and misinterpretation. This problem is one of well-known reasons for a software project to fail. Therefore, in this paper, we extend Mind Map to adequately specify software requirements that are easily comprehensible for both developers and various stakeholders in the project.
