Arguing about Arguing is a series of videos that outlines trends in case based notation literature, over the last 20 or more years, that seem to be overturning the position that Goal Oriented Requirements Engineering notations, such as i* and Goal Requirements Language (GRL) could not be used as assurance reasoning - during the Act of Design.

00:00 Intro
01:29 Revision
02:08 Let's GO!
05:34 One canonical requirement's engineering model to rule them all!  That has a nice ring to it.
07:52 Bazzingah!

Part 10 kicks off where Part 9 left off.  Part 9 went back to the idea of Hazard Oriented reasoning, which should be familiar to case based reasoners, we tease out ideas for graphically painting those defeasible characteristics semantically.   Really, sorry, returning to the point that Goal Oriented Requirements Engineering notations have semantics that entails themes from defeasible reasoning.

Part 10 is a bit theoretical.   It summarises my journey to harmonise niche requirements engineering models to find they're all "blindman" views of that pesky elephant.  Goal orientation appears to be the one root model that can account for them.  Goal orientation can also account for those dang blasted "case" based notations it seems.

Note a more detailed justification for use of Agent Oriented Assurance reasoning, over Case Based Reasoning, is at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jn9cFkRVDs

In this other video I take an example of Case Based Reasoning over a simple model for aircraft landing safety, and recraft it more economically and certainly more comprehensibly in an Goal Oriented Requirements Engineering notation that includes Agent formalisms.

That video is a part of another playlist of videos which are based on my paper "Back to the Future: Pollock versus Toulmin", which was tabled at the Australian Safety Safety Conference 2018.

May paper above shared the "Best Paper" for that conference along with another paper:
