What is Tropos?


Tropos proposes a software development methodology founded on concepts used to model early requirements. In particular, the proposal adopts Eric Yu's i* modeling framework, which offers the notions of actor, goal and (actor) dependency, and uses these as a foundation to model early and late requirements, architectural and detailed design. The methodology complements proposals for agent-oriented programming platforms.

Tropos is derived from the Greek τροποσ, which means "way of doing things"; also τροπή, which means "turn" or "change".
