Negotiating the right balance between conflicting requirements is often key to the success of software development efforts. Stakeholder perceptions about requirements issues should be identified, and conflicts resolved, early in the project life-cycle to achieve a shared vision of the requirements. For large projects, this can be especially difficult to do effectively and efficiently, because of the range of stakeholders are involved (e.g., end-users, developers, software assurance, customers) and the wide range of criteria (e.g., functionality, non-functional quality, and infrastructure) that must be taken into account. If the personnel involved in this are not co-located, the problem is made even harder.In this paper, we discuss the issues of applying visualization and its analysis methods to software requirements negotiation problems with potential solution approaches. The visualized representation of stakeholder perceptions and their consensus, conflict identification and resolution in the visualized perceptions are discussed.
