A pattern language for uncovering business requirements

Hello again,

When i did my PhD I came up with a requirements pattern language that I still use. It's really good for database driven applications and gives the analyst a running start on producing a first specification. It's at the heart of my project management method (PrinceLite) that joins up management with engineering. You can get the paper at www.princelite.co.uk/downloads.cfm. You have to sign up, but don't be shy.

Cheers,

Peter

Whitepaper from HP - Why Focus on Requirements Definition Management in the Application Lifecycle?

Increasingly, smart businesses are looking much closer at requirements definition (RD) and requirements management (RM) (sometimes grouped together under the Gartner-coined phrase, requirements definition management (RDM)) to streamline the entire application lifecycle. Why? Because systematic and effective RDM captures software defects earlier in the lifecycle, and it reduces the overall likelihood that defects will be introduced. That’s important. How important? According to one study, the cost to fix a defect after delivery is more than 100 times the cost to fix it in the requirement and design phase. No business wants to be hit with that bill. Now to add to this the growing interest in agile development techniques as a way to deliver higher quality applications and we have an interesting recipe for success.
