Your tasks and responsibilities

• The thesis tasks include conducting a comprehensive literature review on AI-assisted requirements engineering, refactoring, and multi-agent systems.
  
• Additionally, the tasks involve defining a conceptual framework and methodological approach, designing an agent-based architecture for requirement analysis and restructuring, implementing a prototype workflow using Python with Open Web UI as front end, validating the approach on realistic textual specifications, and documenting the results in a Master thesis report with recommendations for future research
  
• The deliverables for this thesis include a written Master thesis in English, a prototype implementation demonstrating the feasibility of the workflow, supporting material such as diagrams, workflows, and test cases, documentation of the results, and recommendations for future research
  

Desired skills and qualifications

• Master student in Systems Engineering, Computer Science, AI, or a related field (d/f/m)
  
• Strong interest in requirements engineering and model-based systems engineering (MBSE).
  
• Knowledge in Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Large Language Models (LLMs), familiarity with multi-agent systems or a willingness to learn, skills in Python
  
• Ability to work independently, think critically, and structure academic research
  
• Fluent in English and good German skills.
