Guideline: Representing and obtaining goals

Main Description

There are a few approaches that deal with the problematic of representing and obtaining goals; for example, the GORE (Goal-Oriented Requirement Engineering), i*, or KAOS (Knowledge Acquisition in autOmated Specification). None of these methodologies are specific for Big Data ecosystems; however, they can be used to achieve this purpose.

Furthermore, the goals obtained can in turn be divided into more specific sub-goals, which can be represented by means of an AND-OR graph; this will allow a better understanding of the Big Data implementation.
