Goal-oriented Requirements Language (GRL) aims to capture goals and non-functional requirements of stakeholders and analyzing alternative solutions for realizing these goals. GRL also documents the rationale behind selecting certain goals or alternatives. However, it does not have any means to document and trace back all of the arguments that occur during the stakeholder’s discussion process. To address this, we have developed the RationalGRL framework. RationalGRL combines techniques for formal argumentation from artificial intelligence with goal modeling in GRL. However, we did not specify how practitioners can actually use this framework. In this paper we discuss the methodology for RationalGRL, which consists of two processes, goal modeling and argumentation, that can be done interchangeably. We motivate our approach with an example.

Business process compliance with regulations has been a topic of many research areas in Computer Science such as Requirements Engineering (RE), Artificial Intelligence (AI), Logic and Natural Language Processing (NLP). This work aims to provide a systematic way of establishing and managing compliance to assist decision-making and reporting. Despite many notable advances, few systems deal adequately with legal interpretation and modeling norms in an expressive way that is well-integrated with business modeling practices. In this paper, we bring together two leading systems, Legal-URN and Eunomos, for a comprehensive compliance management solution. [less ▲]
