Abstract

This paper describes a method and a sample application of an approach to cross-discipline requirements engineering process patterns. The patterns concept has been applied to the cross-discipline design process domain to include requirements definition, analysis, and validation in contrast to previous efforts in requirements product pattern and discipline-specific process patterns. A method, template, and example process pattern are described. Ways to apply this method to extend the requirement exploration framework of Gause and Weinberg [14] are proposed for generic design problems in any discipline to include a domain-specific process composition approach. A proposed list of patterns based on this framework is provided. A follow on paper will detail cross-discipline analysis results and pattern identification, to include case study analysis from an exemplar set of successful and failed projects and validation using a final case study.
