Negotiation in network based requirements analysis

For each of the stakeholders involved in large-scale, complex and distributed software development processes, some useful support can be provided by recording the argumentation among team members. We describe a system that supports argumentation based on the ARBAS language. A variety of support mechanisms for the capture and use of software development process knowledge are discussed. These include support for the capture, retrieval and replay of process knowledge as well as mechanisms to maintain the consistency of it.
