Abstract
Use-case approaches are attracting attention in requirements engineering because the user-centered concept is valuable in eliciting, analyzing, and documenting requirements. The standard approaches in improving use cases have two main problems. To alleviate these problems, a logic-inspired procedure to extend use case with goals, called goal-driven use cases (GDUC), is proposed. The approach uses goals to structure use-case models and derive use cases, differentiate between soft and rigid goals to handle imprecise nonfunctional requirements, embed goal information in the use cases, and analyze interactions between requirements by investigating the relationship between goals and use cases.
