Abstract

Goal Oriented Requirements Elicitation Process (GOREP) is used to identify the requirements of software using AND/OR graph. Requirements elicitation plays an important role for the identification of software's functional and non-functional requirements. The objective of this paper is twofold; firstly, we classify different requirements elicitation techniques on the basis of different criterion like traditional, cognitive, collaborative, and contextual techniques; and secondly, we integrate mind map with those nodes of AND/OR that we want to further explore at the time of requirements elicitation process. Finally, the utilization of integrating the mind map with AND/OR graph is demonstrated with the help of an example.
