Scenario: Smart Cities
?How about data Privacy? => Big issue in Europe
?how do systems interact with each other? => interfaces, transport protocols
?how is data transferred?
=> reliable and powerful infrastructure is needed
?how to ensure stability

?Low-density cities in developed economies.
?Low-density cities in emerging economies. There is no “one approach fits all”! Different Solutions are needed!
Requirements Engineering on a common base is needed!
This is just one of the major challenges in software
development in the near future, where requirements play a critical role!
