“…Saidi et al (2013), who proposed a metamodel unifying the semantics of i*, CREWS, and PREview from different requirements approaches (goals, scenarios, and points of view, respectively), focus on the benefit of the translation of information between models written in different languages. Patricio et al (2011), who unified i* and KAOS requirements languages, indicate that the creation of tools that interoperate with both popular and unpopular notations disseminates the usage of the unpopular one among industry practitioners. Rauh, Golubski and Queins (2017) emphasize two other benefits:…”

Requirements languages are often defined as metamodels for the standardization of a system’s requirements specification. The unification of these metamodels benefits general analysis and interoperability between requirements models. Even tough some authors already discuss systematic composition approaches, this application for requirements languages’ metamodels is still little explored. Therefore, we applied non-domain-specific composition frameworks to create a unified metamodel for User Story and Use Case diagram by assessing common points in related work. This application enabled reducing the subjectivity of the requirements languages composition process but still strongly depended on human curation.

“…In [32], we have proposed a new extensible language to unify and represent GORE languages. The unifying treatment of concepts in our model makes it possible to define more projections of each problem than the existing languages by themselves.…”

Abstract-Goal-Oriented Requirements Engineering (GORE) has received increasing attention over the past few years. There are several goal-oriented approaches, each one using different kinds of models. We believe that it would be useful to relate them or even perform transformations among them automatically, in order to understand their similarities and differences, their advantages and disadvantages, allowing a possible migration or comparison between approaches. This is something that has not received enough attention. In this paper we propose the definition and implementation of goal model transformations between i* and KAOS. As an immediate contribution, the approach can be used to migrate from one goal model to another through automatic model transformations. This approach also contributes to relate the concepts of i* and KAOS models and will help, for example, a development team in making the decision on which approach to follow, according to the nature of the project and the expressiveness of an approach to represent certain concepts (e.g., obstacles are represented explicitly in KAOS, but not in i*). Another contribution is to facilitate communication among members of the same team, if they are specialized in different approaches.
