A CLEAR Adoption of EARS

This paper briefly summarizes some experience within Honeywell related to the adoption of the Easy Approach to Requirements Syntax (EARS). We discuss the motivation behind our adoption, with our approach for bootstrapping and on-boarding the technology. We then discuss our emerging strategies for scaling and rolling out training across the wider organization. We also discuss some areas of ongoing research, where we are extending and refining the EARS approach to support the greater specificity of the system and software behaviors. We briefly illustrate how these extensions may enable automation in the form of test generation and improved requirement semantic analysis. We finally summarize some areas of ongoing and future research.
