Abstract :
We sketch work-in-progress in the area of systems architecting, which we regard as a fundamental element of system-level requirements engineering. We present our ideas on systems architecting, and relate them to the field of Architecture proper (as in buildings). We present our notion of system-wide scenarios and how these can be derived from contextual analysis of information systems, using a well-established qualitative data analysis methodology from the social sciences
