Title
Supporting Communication Practices: How the Choice of Methodologies Can Affect Requirements Elicitation
Abstract
Requirements elicitation has affirmed itself as a communication intensive stage in system development that is difficult to execute successfully. Failure at this early design stage could be owing to a lack of support for the communication processes that occur between developers and users. Many different methodologies are available for assisting designers in eliciting requirements, and their distinctive structure, in effect, constructs a particular type of communication process for design that will either constrain or promote communication. Given the scarce guidance on how to best select approaches, this paper briefly outlines a four-dimensional framework that is used to evaluate different socially oriented methodologies. The ways that these methodologies are shown, in theory, to facilitate communication between users and developers provides a basis for discussion on the communicative value of such approaches to the gathering of requirements.
