Adapting and Extended ASPECS Methodology to Support the Goal Concept

Abstract Methodology is generally a guideline for solving a problem, with specific components such as phases, tasks, methods, techniques and tools. In this paper, we will extend/adapt the ASPECS methodology by adding a new phase called Goal identification which allows identifying the Goals of the system from the beginning of the methodology
