Abstract
This paper describes research which has been carried out into a framework for requirements analysis. This framework provides the basis for a rich set of traceability relationships, which as we shall see assists the user of requirements in a number of ways. The description makes no attempt to introduce any formal or mathematical concepts but it should be noted that work underpinning the approach described here with a fairly extensive formal notation is ongoing. The structure of the paper is as follows: Section 2 describes the principle of goal-structuring as it is applied to requirements definition. In section 3, we discuss the issues of traceability. Finally, in section 4, we discuss the uses of the richer traceability which is provided. 2. Hierarchical Decomposition It is our thesis that a requirements analysis process based upon a principle of goalstructuring is conducive to a well-structured, traceable requirements specification. Our definition of this process relies upon several primary concepts:
