Intent Specifications: An Approach to Building Human-Centered Specifications
N. Leveson. IEEE Trans. on Software Engineering, (2000)
Abstract
This paper examines and proposes an approach to writing software specifications, based on research in systems theory, cognitive psychology, and human-machine interaction. The goal is to provide specifications that support human problem solving and the tasks that humans must perform in software development and evolution. A type of specification, called Intent Specifications, is constructed upon this underlying foundation.
