| dc.description | Requirements engineering is the process whereby the usersâ needs in a software project are identified, modelled and validated. It is regarded as one of the most important aspects of building an information system because it is during this process that what is to be built is decided. (Loucopoulos and Karakostas, 1995; Herlea, 1996; Carr, 2000; Lundh and Sandberg, 2002). | |
| dc.description.abstract | Purpose This paper aims at proposing a process of requirements engineering for the human centred, adaptive computer integrated construction systems development through industry wide information sharing. Design/methodology/approach The research strategy is based on case study research methodology. The EUâfunded DIVERCITY project was analysed. This project was undertaken by a European consortium of researchers and practitioners from the construction industry. They developed a virtual environment that enables the industry to undertake collaboratively the client briefing and design reviews and the construction stages. Findings DIVERCITY's requirements engineering approach has the potential to provide opportunities for research to determine the appropriate requirements engineering techniques for the development of the systems and their effective implementation in the construction industry. Originality/value The main contribution of the research is the construction of the requirements engineering process for the development of the computer integrated construction systems.
