Requirement Engineering for Knowledge-Intensive Processes : Reference Architecture for the Selection of a Learning Management System

Sven-Michael Wundenberg discusses the development of a reference architecture for the Learning Management Systems (LMS) selection-process aimed at the systems implementation in a polytechnic-knowledge-transfer organization. The focus lies on the requirement engineering (RE) processs quintessence based on research about standard RE-procedures and -approaches combined with LMS-basic knowledge and LMS-best-practice experiences. The resulting reference-architecture, particularly its frameworks and questionnaires, are tested prototypically in the real-life instance of a polytechnic school, the Technikerschule Augsburg (TA), and delivers outstanding results.
