Requirements management for market driven software products — Key issues

The Market-driven requirements engineering (RE) is different from traditional requirements engineering and poses a number of challenges. Due to rapidly changing technology; demands for improvements in market driven requirements management process has increased. This paper is an effort to carry out the analysis of the existing practices and challenges in the market-driven RE. We have studied various case studies of market driven products and analyzed the problems faced in handling continuously emerging requirements. This paper gives an insight into the key issues involved in requirements management of market driven products. These issues are identified after content analysis of existing literature and case studies. To further elaborate the most important issues, we performed Text Mining on literature collected by us and compared the results of test mining with content analysis. The most important issues that we identified are related to RE process and product.
