Problems in the analysis of requirements often lead to failures when developing software systems. This problem is nowadays being faced by requirements engineering. The early involvement of all kinds of stakeholders in the development of such a system and a structured process to elicitate and analyse requirements have made it a crucial factor as a first step in software development. The increasing complexity of modern softwaresystems though leads to a rising amount of information which has to be dealt with during analysis. Without the support of appropriate tools this would be almost impossible to do. Especially in bigger projects, which tend to be spatially distributed, an effective requirements engineering could not be implemented without this kind of support. Today there is a wide range of tools dealing with this matter. They have been in use since some time now and, in their most recent versions, realize the most important aspects of requirements engineering. Within the scope of this thesis some of these tools will be analysed, focussing on both the major functionalities concerning the management of requirements and the repository of these tools. The results of this analyis will be integrated into a reference model.

In usage of information systems the maintenance of their actuality and their extensibility is of importance. There is a constant reoccurrence of situations, when these goals cannot be supported by keeping on the old system, the legacy system. A solution for that is its migration into a new environment. The migration of software is to be considered as a subdiscipline of software engineering, more precisely, as a part of software maintenance. In this thesis the reference migration process model ReMiP, introduced in another thesis of the institute, was applied. The goal of this examination is to bring this model to practice in a website migration project and to analyze its validity. Here, especially the subject of completeness and generalizability of the model for migration processes and the gathering of concrete experiences with the intensity of its activities is of interest. The target environment for the website migration will be the content management system Plone. Within this thesis it will be described thoroughly. Finally, the website to migrate will be brought to its new target environment. The result of this thesis is the migrated GXL-Website in the target system Plone using the ReMiP. By this migration, the ReMiP was successfully validated as a reference process model for software migrations.
