[Context] Requirements Engineering (RE) for Embedded Systems (ES) is challenging since it has unique properties that make it complex, expensive and error-prone compared with other software categories, such as information systems. Due to their complexity, the risk of undetected requirements errors and deficiencies increases considerably. [Goal] Thus, this paper presents a specific process for requirements development and management named REPES which is tailored for embedded systems. [Method] In this proposal, we used the results of a Systematic Literature Review (SLR), metamodel and RE standards to guide the development of the process. [Results] REPES has four main process areas, 24 sub-processes, and 89 actions. [Conclusion] We argue that the proposed process can help organizations in improving their requirements practices to support completeness and correctness of RE for ES.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
