Systematic reviews in requirements engineering: A systematic review

Requirements engineering (RE) in software development life cycle is considered as a main pillar of success of a software system. RE process is used to find out the key requirements in order to develop a system as per needs of the stakeholders. The two focal points in RE process are stakeholders and requirements. Systematic literature review (SLR) is the mean of collecting evidence-based data about the key areas of a research topic and its related issues. In this paper, a study of existing SLRs on RE is conducted in order to find out the key intricacies dealt in the domain of RE. The main purpose of this study is to aggregate the knowledge in the domain of software RE as elicited in different SLRs about different RE problems.
