%0 Journal Article %T THE RATE FRAMEWORK DEVELOPMENT FROM COGNITIVE BIAS DURING REQUIREMENT ENGINEERING PROCESSES %A Muhammad Hassnain %A Imran Ghani %J Journal of Software Engineering & Intelligent Systems %P 109-121 %@ 2518-8739 %D 2016 %R - %X Development of a framework for system¡¯s reliability, accuracy, tolerance and estimation in the context of human factors is a substantial work. This research is aimed to see the impact of human factors on the requirement engineering processes. Proposed reliability, accuracy, tolerance and estimation (RATE) framework is composed of four components accompanied by the relevant sub-components. We aim to present the nominal scoring of all sixteen sub-components that involve during requirement engineering processes. Method execution provides the significant values of all sub-components and their retention in the framework. Results show that stakeholders of software industry have concerns from cognitive bias throughout the requirement engineering processes. Four components and relevant sub-components find their retention in framework as study participants also respond to keep these components and sub-components in the refined RATE framework. %K RATE Framework %K Cognitive Bias %K Software Damaging %K Requirement Engineering Processes %K Reliability %K Estimation %U http://www.jseis.org/Volumes/Vol1/V1N2-6.pdf
