Comment on “A Social Network Based Process to Minimize In-Group Biasedness During Requirement Engineering”

Abstract

The author comment on the paper “A Social Network Based Process to Minimize In-Group Biasedness During Requirement Engineering” by Mughal et al., and point out that the technique can be subsequently improved by focusing on three major areas: (a) differential treatment of crowd of users; (b) ranking of requirements (i.e., determining the importance of the requirements for different stakeholders) based on analysis of social interactions among stakeholders on Facebook; and (c) extension as well as improvement in result validations by improving effectiveness calculation and including scalability as one of the efficiency metrics. Scalability will influence both effectiveness as well as efficiency of the proposed technique.
