Do We Need Requirements in COTS-Based Software Development?

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNCS,volume 2959))

Abstract

COTS software products radically change the way in which software systems are developed. Existing sequential or iterative development methods and techniques are no longer relevant. Likewise we need new techniques to support the greater focus on selection, customization and integration. One of the most important characteristics of COTS-based development is that it is solution- or feature-driven, that is the final application is heavily influenced by the existing features of the available or selected COTS software systems.
