Regulatory compliance is increasingly viewed as an essential element of requirements engineering. Laws, but also regulations and policies, frame their provisions through complex structures made of conditions, derogations, exceptions, which together generate a high number of alternative compliance solutions.

The proposal is evaluated with a fragment of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).Read the full paper here: https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-642-34002-4_30
