Requirements Acquisition and Controlled Evolution
     
         (RACE) A "back to basics" approach to
        {requirements engineering}.  The method, is being pieced
        together through a series of intermediate research studies.
        In essence, the approach has been to establish requirements
        for RACE, identify individual techniques that meet those
        requirements, experiment with the combined use of the
        techniques, and finally assemble the method.  In practice,
        RACE has been influenced significantly by Checkland and
        Wilson's {Soft Systems Methodology} (SSM) and this forms the
        core of the method.
