iMER: Iterative Process of Entity Relationship and Business Proces Models Extraction from the Requirements
Extracting conceptual models, e.g., entity relationship model or Business
Process model, from software requirement document is an essential task in the
software development life cycle. Business process model presents a clear
picture of required system functionality. Operations in business process model
together with the data entity consumed, help the software developers to
understand the database design and operations to be implemented. Researchers
have been aiming at automatic extraction of these artefacts from the
requirement document. In this paper, we present an automated approach to
extract the entity relationship and business process models from requirements,
which are possibly in different formats such as general requirements, use case
specification and user stories. Our approach is based on the efficient natural
language processing techniques
