Abstract: The success of large software engineering projects depends critically on the specification, which must represent the requirements of a large number of people with widely differing perspectives. Conventional approaches to software engineering do not address the process of identifying and integrating these perspectives, but instead concentrate on the maintenance of a single consistent description. This results in a specification which represents only one point of view, often the analyst's,... (Update)

.... Rugg 1994, Ruebenstein and Waters 1989) A limitation of most earlier approaches is that they only supported a single viewpoint (Easterbrook 1991). An exception is Nii (1986) who treated the knowledge from each expert as a separate reasoning system. In the approach offered in...

...the group meet to compare the viewpoints and identify conflicts. A number of researchers offer different sets of conflict types (e.g. Easterbrook 1991 and Schwanke and Kaiser 1988) We have adopted the four quadrant model of comparison between experts developed by Gaines and...
