Standards and Models on and Around Software Requirement Engineering: A Review with Perspective of Varying Situations

As part of our current research project, where we are investigating situational requirement engineering (RE) in Global Software Development (GSD) environment, here we are reviewing the standards and models on and around RE. In specific the objective of the review is to know the state of knowledge about situational RE from domain of standards and models on and around RE. We have reviewed 16 most relevant standards and models, which are directly or indirectly related to RE. We have performed systematic review for our research. The outcome of this study is some situational factors that have a significant consideration for investigating situational RE in GSD environment.
