Requirements Engineering Network Of International cooperating Research groups

Any information technology product, or service, which does not meet the
requirements of users, or which cannot be identified with the requirements
of a market sector, will not be used, sold or yield
social benefit. Requirements engineering (RE) provides the tools,
concepts and methods which mediate
between the providers of information technology services and
products, and the users or markets for such services and products.

RENOIR is a network of excellence established within the Fourth
Framework Programme ( FP4 ) of the European Union. It is a network
of research groups, each with established excellence in the area of
requirements engineering.
