Abstract

There may be much gap of the scope and requirement among distributed teams in dual shore software projects. Collaborative requirement engineering is essential so as to keep consistent not only among distributed teams but also among the entire software life cycle. This paper is intended to introduce a workflow for collaborative software requirement engineering including requirement gathering, requirement analysis, requirement evolving, and requirement management for change or bug fixing. The suggestion solution can be helpful especially to the dual-shore software maintenance project.
