A Methodology for Implementing the Formal Legal-GRL Framework: A Research Preview

[Context and motivation] Legal provisions create a distinct set of requirements for businesses to be compliant with. Capturing legal requirements and managing regulatory compliance is a challenging task in system development. [Question/problem] Part of this task involves modeling legal requirements, which is not trivial for requirements engineers as non-experts in law. The resultant legal requirements models also tend to be very complex and hard to understand. [Principal ideas/results] To facilitate the modeling process, we propose a formal framework for modeling legal requirements. This framework includes a methodology that helps to resolve complexities of legal requirements models. [Contribution] In this paper, we outline this methodology and present a procedure that reduces modal and conditional complexities of legal models and facilitates automation of the modeling process.
