BCS -- Formal Aspects Of Computing Science -- Special Interest Group


		   The 1992 BCS-FACS Christmas Workshop


		   Turning a Formal Eye on Requirements


		 Imperial College, Department of Computing
                 180, Queens Gate, Kensington, LONDON, SW7 2BZ
                            UNITED KINGDOM

			    16-17th December 1992



   The workshop aims to survey the current state of R&D in the
   requirements engineering stage of the development of
   software-intensive systems; the elicitation of requirements, how they
   are expressed and how they are analysed.

   Included are reports of on-going research; perspectives on industry
   developments and related problems. It is intended to encompass a
   variety of different approaches being persued in this problematic
   area.
