Design Rationale in Exemplary Business Process Modeling

This paper describes a collaborative tool supporting humanistic business process modeling. The tool adopts group sto rytelling and design storyboards in order to ease knowledge ex ternalization and representation. This humanistic approach diverges from the existing approaches requiring strict process formalization and emphasizing technical details, which constraint the modeling tasks to technology experts. The paper presents the fundamental theoretical concepts underlying the humanistic ap proach and illustrates how they have been implemented in the tool.

“…This technique has been developed to visualize system re quirements during user-centered design workshops [28]. It has been suggested that it may help eliciting business processes [24], although experimental evidence has not yet been pro vided. Our research will thus contribute to validate that sug gestion.…”

“…Rationale knowledge can be used in requirements analysis either manually (e.g., for requirements communication, understanding) or automatically (e.g., for requirements reasoning, prioritization). Breitling et al introduced Exemplary Business Process Modeling (EBPM) approach in requirements analysis in order to improve the requirements communication between requirements analysts and designers by gathering rationale in both business process and design level [14]. This approach can smoothly connect the rationale knowledge from requirements to design in an integrated rationale framework (i.e., EBPM).…”

Abstract-Rationale and rationale management have been playing an increasingly prominent role in software system development mainly due to the knowledge demand during system evaluation, maintenance, and evolution, especially for large and complex systems. The rationale management for requirements engineering, as a commencing and critical phase in software development life cycle, is still under-exploited. In this paper, we first survey briefly the state-of-the-art on rationale employment and applications in requirements engineering. Secondly, we identify the challenges in integrating rationale management in requirements engineering activities in order to promote further investigations and define a research agenda on rationale management in requirements engineering.
