ARCA: Automated Requirement Change Analysis

Overview

Today's development projects are characterized by high complexity, dynamics and uncertainty. New insights, agile approaches and changing framework conditions require continuous adaptation of development goals. Such adjustments cause delays and high costs due to change propagation (propagation effects), especially in late development stages. One reason for the severe effects is that without a holistic perspective on the system, the risks of requirements changes are underestimated and inefficiently managed. This is especially true for complex interdisciplinary systems, since they are not only based on extensive sets of requirements, but also the cross-disciplinary effects require special expertise.

The goal of the project is to develop a software prototype that supports the development of complex technical systems in a dynamic enterprise environment by managing the risks of changes in requirements based on a holistic and practice-oriented method. With the help of the software prototype, development decisions on the proactive and anticipatory handling of change impulses are to be prepared, made and implemented. This increases the efficiency and goal orientation of development projects.
