Abstract
Requirements engineering (ER) is, perhaps, the most critical activity of the information systems development process, because it is where the support that the information systems will have to give to the work carried out in the organizations is defined. The incorrect requirements definition will lead to the deployment of systems not adjusted to the organisational needs.
