The Workshop on Requirements Engineering 2019 is the twentieth-second edition of a series of workshops on the topic. This series started as a meeting of the Ibero-American requirements engineering community and has increasingly attracted the attention of other researchers and professionals around the world.

The format of the WER promotes the discussion and the exchange of experiences between members of the academy and the industry. This year we will have invited presentations from professionals from the academy and industry, mini-tutorials and the presentation of videos on topics related to the practice of Requirements Engineering.

PAPERS SUBMISSIONS

We invite the submission of complete or short works that present original and unpublished results, from the academic or industrial point of view, in all aspects of Requirements Engineering, and on the perspective of the product or process. The selection of the works will be based on the applicability and relevance for Requirements Engineering, originality and clarity.

The indicated subjects, but not restrictive, for the works, are:
● Elicitation, analysis and documentation of requirements
● Requirements validation and visualization
● Language, methods, processes and requirements specification tools
● Management, traceability, prioritization and negotiation of requirements
● Requirements in agile methods
● Model-oriented development requirements
● Non-functional requirements
● Compliance with regulations
● Requirements engineering and software architecture
● Requirements Engineering oriented to aspects
● Service-oriented requirements engineering
● Requirements for web applications and mobile applications
