In any software project, different stakeholders participate in requirements elicitation process to identify the requirements of software. Stakeholder Identification (SI) is an important part of requirements elicitation process. Despite its importance, SI methods have received less attention by goal oriented requirements engineering (GORE) community. Goals are high level objective of an organization; and are the basis of GORE. In literature, we identify that goal oriented requirements elicitation process (GOREP) like knowledge acquisition for automated specification (KAOS), attributed goal oriented requirements analysis (AGORA), and goal oriented idea generation (GOIG) etc. do not support SI methods. Therefore, to address this issue, we present a method for SI in GOREP which includes the following steps: specify stakeholder types, specify stakeholder roles, selecting and classifying stakeholders using fuzzy based approach, and stakeholder's analysis. Finally, the utilization of the proposed method is demonstrated with the help of an example.

“…Several researchers or institutes such as Mylopoulos [Mylopoulos, et al 1999 [Oshiro, et al 2003], etc., have proposed the Goal-Oriented Requirement Analysis method to support the task of requirements elicitation. In principle, the method starts to refine the customers requirements into goals, and then represent them in a goal graph using the AND-OR elements, which may be used to identify any conflicts among these initial goals and analyze the corresponding impacts.…”

This research presents the application of the Goal Graph in the methodology of generating software requirements specification, in order to improve the modifiability of the customization the Goal Graph. We propose an algorithm that optimizes the quality factor of modifiability for the Goal Graph to enhance the customization of the Goal Graph. Besides, we demonstrate the real application of the proposed algorithm. An empirical application for generating the customized requirements specification for a practical library project is also presented. In addition, using two attributes, priority-values and cost-values, we further build the selection factors which as a screening criterion. The Goal Graph, having attribute values and their weights, can generate a customized requirements specification.

Goal oriented requirements engineering methods have gained significance because they define the requirements in terms of goals which are well understood by the stakeholders. Although the goals are extracted from the stakeholders having good domain knowledge, but extracting these goals is a challenging task in the goal oriented methods, especially the soft goals about which even the stakeholders have very little knowledge. To extract the soft goals, the high level goals are decomposed and a guiding model for goal refinement involving active participation of stakeholders, is essential. We propose a methodology driven approach involving maximum participation of stakeholders for eliciting the soft goals, where the soft goals are elicited by the stakeholders from the high-level goals through the process of Goal Refinement, involving Agents. The elicited goals are compiled through a software program called Activity Card Compiler. The methodology is used for Soft Goal Elicitation for the development of an Web Based News Application. We present an analysis of our results.
