High Impact Design Requirements for Software Intensive Systems: The Challenge of New Computing Environments

NSF提案0613606PI：Kalle Lyytinen Case Western Reserve University软件密集型系统的高影响设计需求-新计算环境的挑战该项目旨在围绕具有不同背景的需求捕获和管理建立一个强大的设计研究人员社区。其目的是组织讲习班和进行实况调查研究，以将新的范式、理论概念和方法带入为新计算环境的软件设计奠定坚实的智力基础的发展中。研讨会的主题是制定确定、征求、得出和管理设计要求的原则、基础和指导方针。这些问题围绕许多研究方向进行讨论，包括人机交互、软件设计和体系结构、形式规范和验证、商业模型和企业体系结构、工业和媒体设计。研讨会试图找出社区之间的差异和共同点，并分析新的计算环境如何挑战每个社区的设计实践。其目的是建立一个需求识别、捕获、验证和管理的研究愿景，以应对21世纪设计软件密集型系统的挑战，这些系统的特征越来越多地体现在工业、媒体和商业设计上。将解决以下问题：1)软件密集型系统中需求的变化范围是什么；2)我们如何调整和扩展当前的设计原则，以满足一系列应用程序中对可用性、安全性和商业价值的更广泛的关注。研讨会旨在确定设计师和承办人在明确高影响力设计要求方面面临的挑战，并概述能够从多学科角度应对这些挑战的设计方法的特点。研讨会预计将在需求工程杂志上出版一期特刊，并出版一本关于新设计实践的书，探讨来自多个学科实践的关切。

NSF Proposal 0613606PI: Kalle LyytinenCase Western Reserve UniversityHigh Impact Design Requirements for Software Intensive Systems- The Challenge of New Computing EnvironmentsThis project is aimed at building up a robust community of design researchers around requirements capture and management with heterogeneous backgrounds. The aim is to organize workshops and conduct fact finding studies to bring new paradigms, theories concepts, approaches into the development of a strong intellectualfoundation for software design for new computing environments. The theme of the workshop is formulating principles, foundations and guidance for identifying, soliciting, deriving and managing design requirements. These issues are discussed around a number of research streams including human computer interaction, software design and architectures, formal specification and verification, business models and enterprise architectures, industrial and media design. The workshop seeks to find differences and commonalities acrosscommunities and to analyze how new computing environments challenge the design practice in each. The aim is to build up a research vision of requirements identification, capture, verification and managementthat addresses challenges of designing software intensive systems in the 21st century that are characterized increasingly by industrial, media and business design. The following issues will be addressed: 1) what is the changing scope of requirements in software intensive systems, 2) how can we adjust and expand current design principles to capture broadened concerns for usability, security, business value across a set of applications. The workshop seeks to identify challenges faced by designers and takeholders in specifying requirements for high impact designs, and to outline features of design approaches that can address these challenges from a multi-disciplinary perspective. The workshop is expected to produce a special issue in requirements engineering journal and a book on new design practices which approaches the concerns from multiple disciplinary practices.
