RENOIR is a
network of excellence
established within the Fourth Framework Programme (
FP4
)
of the
European Union
.
It is a network of research groups, each with established excellence in the
area of requirements engineering, funded through the FP4 provisions for
research and technology development in information technology, collectively known as
ESPRIT
.
Why requirements engineering ?
Any information technology product, or service, which does
not meet the requirements of users, or which cannot be identified with
the requirements of a market sector, will not be used, sold or yield social
benefit. Requirements engineering (RE) provides the tools, concepts and
methods which mediate between the providers of information technology services
and products, and the users or markets for such services and products.
