Abstract
The requirements phase of information systems computerisation involves multiple perspectives and needs of stakeholders that must be precisely described to build an effective system. Over the years, software development has suffered from inadequate requirements specification methodologies. A model-driven development scheme called communication analysis CA was recently introduced with the potential to solve some of the problems currently inherent in software development. This paper contrasts new ideas in CA methodology with those supported by our flowthing model FM. The purpose is to experiment with FM by using examples from other methodologies, specifically CA. This experimentation could lead to the integration of FM into mainstream research in software engineering e.g., object oriented, UML and might also influence its direction. The results of applying FM to CA examples show the potential advantages of FM as a primary basis for conceptual views of information systems to be utilised in applications such as communications and software requirements specification.
