This talk will be in two parts.
1. What is going on out there? The speaker and colleagues conducted a questionnaire survey to find out what influences the requirements process in industry. The quantitative results were strikingly different between industries, but also had a strong overall pattern suggesting a need for radical change.
2. Personal Reflections on Requirements Engineering. The speaker will consider the implications of some of the survey's findings. He will speculate from his personal experience what the obstacles are, what we should do about them, and what the future may hold.
