Paper Title
Empirical Evaluation Of Requirements Elicitation Techniques
Abstract
The success of any software development cycle for producing the software product is based on the software
requirements. The elicitation of requirements is the first and most important activity in the Requirement Engineering (RE).
The problems in requirement elicitation process will result in poor requirements which can lead to the development of
unsatisfactory software system. Moreover, the development of such unsatisfactory software system may be unacceptable to
the user. The poor requirements have high maintenance costs, or undergo frequent changes. By improving requirement
elicitation, the system development process can be improved, resulting in production of a much better system. Requirement
engineering is a process including various activities namely requirement elicitation, analysis, specification and
review/validation. This paper provides a comparative study of different requirement elicitation techniques. An empirical
study in the form of questionnaires was conducted to evaluate the best requirements elicitation technique among Joint
Application Design (JAD), Quality Function Deployment (QFD), Soft System Methodology (SSM) and Prototyping. After
empirical analysis it can be concluded that none of the elicitation technique was judged best in comparison to other. On the
basis of the finding of the study it is suggested that software developers, depending upon different parameters may select
different software requirements elicitation technique.
Keywords— Requirement, JAD, QFD, SSM, Prototyping.
