• Abstract: This article provides an overview of the importance of requirements gathering in secure software development. It explains the crucial role of Requirements Engineers in defining and understanding the customer's needs and desires, as well as their responsibilities in liaising with the development team. The article also covers various software development life cycles, such as waterfall, spiral, and agile models, and their advantages and disadvantages. Additionally, it explains the importance of domain knowledge and stakeholder-driven elicitation in identifying system goals and firm requirements. The article emphasizes the need to mitigate the risks of vagueness and ambiguity early on and provides techniques for evaluating, negotiating, and prioritizing requirements. Finally, it discusses the importance of turning these requirements into complete, concise, and consistent documents using natural. Overall, this article highlights the critical role of requirements gathering in creating secure and successful software products that meet the customer's needs and expectations.

  Production companies face problems when it comes to quickly adapting their production control to fluctuating demands or changing requirements. Control approaches aiming to encapsulate production functions in the sense of services have shown to be promising in order to increase flexibility of Cyber-Physical Production Systems. But an existing challenge of such approaches is finding production plans based on provided functionalities for a set of requirements, especially when there is no direct (i.e., syntactic) match between demanded and provided functions.
