Proposed Ontology for Requirements Reuse

Requirements engineering is a crucial phase in system development. If the requirements are correct, the entire project will succeed but the failure of requirements will have negative impact on the project. In this research, ontology for requirement reuse is proposed either across different projects or within a single project. The requirements once elicited, designed, verified and validated, produce sets of artefacts that are used to build the system. These requirements can be useful if stored in a repository and searched for similar criteria in future scenario thus, saving time and effort. This paper proposes ontology for the reuse process of the requirements.
