Requirements Engineering in the Development Process of Web Systems: A Systematic Literature Review

Requirements Engineering (RE) is the first phase in the software development process during which designers attempt to fully satisfy users' needs. Web Engineering (WE) methods should consider adapting RE to the Web's large and diverse user groups. The objective of this work is to classify the literature with regard to the RE applied in WE in order to obtain the current "state-of-the-art". The present work is based on the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method proposed by Kitchenham; we have reviewed publications from ACM, IEEE, Science Direct, DBLP and World Wide Web. From a population of 3059 papers, we identified 14 primary studies, which provide information concerning RE when used in WE methods.
