On Wednesday, May 4th 2011, the SYSLAB seminar series was held by Iyad
Zikra, entitled Analyzing the Integration between Requirements
and Models in Model Driven Development. Iyad presented a survey on the state of the art of the relationship between requirements and model driven development (MDD). Different approaches were identified, such as using Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques or guidelines, for dealing with this gap. NLP in this context means to parse the requirements that are written in natural language and transform them to some model format. The overall goal with this work is understand and minimize the gap between requirements and MDD, where NLP techniques will be studied further. The survey will be published in EMMSAD 2011.
