1 00:00:00,070 --> 00:00:02,370 So just for completeness, I want to mention some other 2 00:00:02,370 --> 00:00:05,340 techniques besides the traditional ones that we just saw that 3 00:00:05,340 --> 00:00:07,880 can be used for requirements solicitation. And these other 4 00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:10,740 techniques can be divided in three main groups. There are 5 00:00:10,740 --> 00:00:14,820 collaborative techniques that were created to support incremental development 6 00:00:14,820 --> 00:00:18,850 of complex systems with large diverse user populations. An example 7 00:00:18,850 --> 00:00:21,130 of such techniques which is widely used and you 8 00:00:21,130 --> 00:00:25,120 might know is brainstorming. There are also social approaches and 9 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:28,140 these are approaches, techniques that exploit the social 10 00:00:28,140 --> 00:00:31,520 sciences to better collect information from the stakeholders and 11 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:34,310 the environment. And among those I just want to mention 12 00:00:34,310 --> 00:00:36,730 ethnographic techniques which are based on the idea of 13 00:00:36,730 --> 00:00:40,100 collecting information on the participants by observing them 14 00:00:40,100 --> 00:00:44,660 in their original environment. Finally cognitive techniques, leverage cognitive 15 00:00:44,660 --> 00:00:48,490 science approaches to discover expert knowledge for example they 16 00:00:48,490 --> 00:00:51,260 can be used to understand the problem solving methods. 17 00:00:51,260 --> 00:00:54,000 And in case you're interested in finding out more about this and 18 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,580 other techniques, I'm providing some references in the notes for the lesson.
