Leveraging Semantic Data Wikis for Distributed Requirements Elicitation

Using Wikis for the collaborative creation of structured textual content has gained increasing importance in the past decade. As Wikis facilitate the involvement of large user groups to create content in an easy way, their application in large, spatially distributed software development efforts seems to be very promising. We present an approach, which aims at supporting the collaboration of stakeholders with regard to the Requirements Engineering process. This approach enables large stakeholder groups to elicit, semantically structure and classify requirements in the very early and creative Requirements Engineering phases.
Instead of leveraging text-based Wikis, the approach is based on our semantic data Wiki Onto Wiki, which focuses on the structuring and management of fine-grained data by employing Semantic Web technologies. Onto Wiki enables the intuitive authoring of Knowledge Bases and facilitates the application of Knowledge Management methods.
