Approaches to Merging/Revising Prioritized knowledge and their Applications to Multiple Viewpoints based Requirements Engineering



Brief Description

Objectives:

The aims of this project are to further develop merging and revision approaches to addressing the problem of handling inconsistent requirements in the requirements stage, following on from our previous project. We are especially concerned with inconsistency, redundancy, vagueness, and incompleteness. The main objectives of this research are: (1) to develop an unified logical tool for formalizing requirements statements; (2) to provide a clear formal characterization of inconsistent requirements; (3) to develop a series of flexible strategies for handling inconsistency.
