Abstract

Requirement analysis is an important process in the design and development of information systems. Various tools and methodologies are used to gather the user requirements. These methodologies have their own strength and weakness. In this paper we will apply collaborative requirements engineering process to determine the requirements of the: Semantically Enhanced, Multifaceted, and Collaborative Access to Cultural Heritage (MOSAICA) project. MOSAICA is an EU Framework VI funded project. The process has been carried out in an interactive manner thereby creating a process that permits effective coordination and easy change management among project partners
