Abstract
The main challenge for governments worldwide is to transform their systems to deliver efficient and cost effective services through information and communication technologies. Requirements engineering is a crucial activity in system development process, especially in the development of large scale systems such as E-gov applications. Inconsistencies and terminology conflicts are hindering many E-gov applications. This paper develops ontology (mainly concepts) in the domain of requirements engineering process for E-gov applications. This contributes in enabling software engineers to find out shared-understandable and common concepts to describe requirements for different domain models used in developing E-gov applications. Several documents related to E-gov requirement are collected; the main concepts and relationships are extracted and refined. The main theme of this paper is to provide common concepts and understanding of the requirements for many E-gov applications.
