The concept of goal has been used in many domains such as management sciences and strategic planning, artificial intelligence and human computer interaction. Recently, goal-driven approaches have been developed and tried out to support requirements engineering activities such as requirements elicitation, specification, validation, modification, structuring and negotiation. This chapter first review various research efforts undertaken in this line of research and presents the state-of-the-art in using goals to engineer requirements. It then presents a particular goal model, the goal/strategy map, and shows that maps can help with facing the challenge of new emerging multi-purposes systems, i.e. systems imposing variability in requirements elaboration and customization in the requirements engineering process.
