How Can We Design Products, Services, and Software That Reflect the Needs of Our Stakeholders? : Towards a Canvas for Successful Requirements Engineering

Current research in the requirements engineering (RE) domain is extensive. However, despite increased efforts from both practitioners and researchers to make RE more successful, the implied link to project success is questionable. Consequently, to address this gap, researchers propose a new paradigm in the domain of RE, namely the artefact orientation. Based on this new research field, this study introduces a requirements engineering canvas (REC) which we developed based on model requirements (MRs) derived from a literature review. Moreover, we confirmed these MRs with findings from interviews involving 7 domain experts. In particular, the REC addresses the 7 MRs: goal orientation, documentation, integration, agility, continuity, adaptability, and responsibilities.
