Modeling requirements with goals in virtual university environment

In recent years, goal based requirements analysis methods have attracted increasing attention in the area of requirements engineering. However, there is no systematic way in the existing approaches to handle the impacts of requirements on the structuring of software architecture. As an attempt towards the investigation of the interactions among goals, scenarios, and software architectures, we propose a goal based approach to building software architecture based on the interactions in an incremental fashion. The proposed approach is illustrated using the problem domain of a virtual university environment
