Goal-oriented requirements analysis techniques provide ways to refine
organizational and technical objectives, to more effectively explore
alternatives during requirements definition. After selecting a set
of alternatives to achieve these objectives, you can elaborate on
them during subsequent phases to make them more precise and complete.
The authors argue that goal-oriented analysis complements and strengthens
traditional requirements analysis techniques by offering a means
for capturing and evaluating alternative ways of meeting business
goals. They detail the five main steps that comprise goal-oriented
analysis. These steps include goal analysis, softgoal analysis,
softgoal correlation analysis, goal correlation analysis, and evaluation
of alternatives. To illustrate the main elements of the proposed
analysis technique, they explore a typical scenario that involves
defining requirements for a meeting scheduling system
