In this paper, we address this by extending a traditional goal modeling notation to support the representation of optional and preference requirements. ...
Requirements can differ in their importance. As such the priorities that stakeholders associate with requirements may vary from stakeholder to stakeholder and from one situation to the next. ...
CONCLUSIONS We presented a goal-based framework for modeling and reasoning about optional and preferred requirements. ...

They claim that the two main premises of the argument conflict with each other, and hence should not both be accepted. I show that this conflict can be avoided by modifying one of the premises. ...

Our framework employs a model checking-based method for reasoning with qualitative preferences to identify the most preferred alternative(s). ...
It may, however, be impossible to find a design that fulfills all required goals and all optional goals. ...
In [7] , Liaskos et al. specify mandatory and optional requirements, along with preferences over optional requirements, within goal models that are similar to ours except for some additional concepts ...

In this paper, we propose an automated decision making technique, which chooses an option from the set of those available based on preferences and priorities expressed in a highlevel preference language ...
Moreover, in order to make a decision, our technique goes beyond the provided preferences with psychology-inspired heuristics, which concern how humans make decisions, as provided preferences are typically ...
By construction, if no monadic preference is satisfied by an option, and one of them is associated with a requirement (or need), the PSM value of this option will indicate an unsatisfied requirement (or ...

In this paper three levels of strategic interaction and strategic knowledge are identified within a compositional model of design. ...
Interaction with the designer is possible on, for example, preference relations between requirements, inconsistent requirements, and a preferred focus. ...

The user reasoning is simulated, and if the result of the simulation matches the documented decision, the simulation is taken to approximate the actual reasoning. ...
The plausibility of this approach requires that the simulation mirror human decisionmaking, so we adopt an automated process explicitly modelled on human psychology. ...
We are concerned with cases where the reasons for a decision are not immediately obvious as they require a choice between options with multiple attributes with pros and cons. ...
