ABSTRACT: In service-oriented computing, process model may serve as a link to connect users’ requirements with Web Services. In this paper, we propose an approach and related key techniques to generate process-oriented requirements specification from user’s goal. For this purpose, a requirements description language named SORL will be provided to capture users’ requirements. Then, a unified requirements meta-modeling frame RPGS will be used to construct reusable domain assets, which is the basis of generating requirements specifications. Finally, a set of rules are defined to extract process control structures from users’ requirements described with SORL, so that we can convert requirements description into process-oriented requirements specification smoothly.
