Abstract

It has become a trend that new CASE based tools be more focused. FAES is such a case. It assists the software engineer in the interview process during an information systems' requirements phase. FAES inherited important concepts from the IS literature and embodies them in a conceptual model that drives the interview process. Special heuristics associated with the conceptual model were proposed and tested before inclusion on FAES. The goal of those heuristics is to provide an up front analysis of the information as the interview proceeds. Artificial Intelligence techniques were used in order to provide FAES with the intelligent assistance capability.
