Abstract
In this paper, we describe our graph-oriented method used to find semantically similar sentences in external information sources that have a semantic enrichment potential in relation to sentences of textual functional requirements specification. Our motivation is to reduce the incompleteness of requirements that may be a source of inconsistency. We found there are some facts and rules so obvious for domain experts that they do not even mention them in requirements. We call such rules default consistency rules. These rules are often not implemented and can not be revealed from the requirements because they are not mentioned there.
