I am a Ph.D. student at SCG since March 2018. My work essentially involves building tools and methodology to engage several different stakeholders into requirements engineering and domain modeling activities. The central idea of my thesis is to identify different requirements formats suitable for specific stakeholders and to model those in a single tool. Eventually, such a tool will allow smooth co-evolution of different requirements artifacts and improve traceability and change impact analysis.
Ongoing projects
- Visual scenario builder in Pharo
