+Unfortunately, extracting requirements from these sources is not

+

+2

+00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:06,220

+a straightforward task, as there are many issues involved

+

+3

+00:00:06,220 --> 00:00:09,470

+with the requirements elicitation. One first problem is the

+

+4

+00:00:09,470 --> 00:00:13,930

+thin spread of domain knowledge. Knowledge is rarely available

+

+5

+00:00:13,930 --> 00:00:15,970

+in an explicit form, that is, it is

+

+6

+00:00:15,970 --> 00:00:20,310

+almost never written down. Moreover, knowledge is often distributed

+

+7

+00:00:20,310 --> 00:00:23,410

+across many sources. For example, in the graphical depiction

+

+8

+00:00:23,410 --> 00:00:25,590

+here, to find out that this is the purpose

+

+9

+00:00:25,590 --> 00:00:28,240

+of the project. The developer, the analyist, needs to talk

+

+10

+00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:30,870

+to a lot of different people. And, to make things even

+

+11

+00:00:30,870 --> 00:00:34,400

+worse. There are often conflicts between the knowledge gathered from

+

+12

+00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:37,610

+different sources. A second issue is the fact that the knowledge

+

+13

+00:00:37,610 --> 00:00:41,090

+is often tacit. What is also called the say, do

+

+14

+00:00:41,090 --> 00:00:44,052

+problem. In the example shown here. For instance. We have a

+

+15

+00:00:44,052 --> 00:00:47,650

+customer that is describing to the analyst. The way in which

+

+16

+00:00:47,650 --> 00:00:51,060

+he accomplishes a task. So it performs these three steps and

+

+17

+00:00:51,060 --> 00:00:54,300

+reaches the goal. Whereas in practice, the actual way in

+

+18

+00:00:54,300 --> 00:00:57,530

+which this task accomplished is by going through a larger number

+

+19

+00:00:57,530 --> 00:00:59,880

+of steps to get to the same goal. So the point

+

+20

+00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:02,650

+here is that, even if the knowledge were more concentrated, so

+

+21

+00:01:02,650 --> 00:01:05,660

+not as spread as in this example. People simply find

+

+22

+00:01:05,660 --> 00:01:08,680

+it hard to describe knowledge that they regularly use. So it

+

+23

+00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,740

+is hard to make this knowledge explicit, to pass this knowledge

+

+24

+00:01:11,740 --> 00:01:13,130

+to someone else. Yet another

+

+25

+00:01:13,130 --> 00:01:16,690

+problem is limited observability. Identifying requirements

+

+26

+00:01:16,690 --> 00:01:20,570

+through observation is often difficult as the problem owners might be

+

+27

+00:01:20,570 --> 00:01:23,550

+too busy to perform the task that we need to observe.

+

+28

+00:01:23,550 --> 00:01:25,750

+Or they might be doing a lot of other things together

+

+29

+00:01:25,750 --> 00:01:27,980

+with the task that we need to observe, so that becomes

+

+30

+00:01:27,980 --> 00:01:31,530

+confusing. That introduces noise. Moreover, even when this is not the

+

+31

+00:01:31,530 --> 00:01:34,460

+case, the presence of an observer might change their problem. It

+

+32

+00:01:34,460 --> 00:01:38,020

+is very typical for human subjects to improve or modify an

+

+33

+00:01:38,020 --> 00:01:41,760

+aspect of their behavior, which is being experimentally measured in response

+

+34

+00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,110

+to the fact that they know that they're being studied. You know

+

+35

+00:01:44,110 --> 00:01:47,110

+that somebody's studying you and you change the way in which you behave.

+

+36

+00:01:47,110 --> 00:01:50,910

+A typical issue. Finally, the information that we collect might be biased.

+

+37

+00:01:50,910 --> 00:01:54,270

+For several reasons. People might not feel free to tell you what you

+

+38

+00:01:54,270 --> 00:01:57,030

+need to know. Or, people might not want to tell you what

+

+39

+00:01:57,030 --> 00:02:00,240

+you need to know. For example, in all the common cases in which

+

+40

+00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,870

+the outcome might effect them, people might provide you a different picture

+

+41

+00:02:03,870 --> 00:02:06,770

+from the real one. In order to influence you. So, they might have

+

+42

+00:02:06,770 --> 00:02:08,820

+a hidden agenda, and mislead you, either

+

+43

+00:02:08,820 --> 00:02:11,860

+consciously or unconsciously. So, all these issues

+

+44

+00:02:11,860 --> 00:02:14,370

+add to the complexity of collecting requirements,

+

+45

+00:02:14,370 --> 00:02:16,522

+of identifying the purpose of a system.
