The concept is divided into six modules that offer context-sensitive support in the identification, documentation, linking, modification and reuse of requirements and the associated knowledge. Since this concept was developed as part of the BMBF-funded SME Innovative Project DAM4KMU, which is primarily aimed at German SMEs, the concept developed was specially designed for processing German-language texts. The digital assistance system pursues the goal, on the one hand, of increasing the quality of the documentation by supporting the user in the creation of complete formulations. On the other hand, with the help of the most modern language models, possible relationships between the information should be identified and linked to each other in a partially automated manner. In addition, the integration of web crawling technologies should make the knowledge available on the Internet available in a context-sensitive manner, in order to lift possible innovations on the one hand and not to forget possible non-considered boundary conditions on the other. The automatic linking of all information is intended to ensure a continuous exchange of knowledge, which should reduce misunderstandings and non-communicated changes to requirements or goals to a minimum. }, keywords = {knowledge management, machine learning, requirement engineering}, pubstate = {published}, tppubtype = {conference} } In this paper, a concept of a digital assistance system is presented which, based on computer linguistic methods, supports the user in the tasks of requirement-based knowledge management.
