Abstract
Information Technology (IT) Governance is closely intertwined with Requirements Engineering. Aligning the latter with the former indeed allows proposing management rules for evaluating a software development's relevance in alignment with the organization's long-term strategy. Typically, the goal of governance of software engineering is to ensure that the results of a software development align with the strategic requirements of the organization in terms of business process support and technology adoption. Requirements-driven software development processes, such as (I-)Tropos, are using coarse-grained (i.e., high-level) and social-oriented models to drive the software life-cycle both in terms of project management and forward engineering techniques. To support the governance of software developments realized with I-Tropos in terms of business and IT alignment as well as investment decision, this thesis proposes a process framework called GI-Tropos including a meta-model formalization of relevant process elements, the process description itself as well as its application onto two examples.
