Abstract

A method includes receiving product data relating to a first computer software product, selecting from the product data a set of epics that describe functional aspects of the first computer software product, and generating a product description ontology of the first computer software product from the selected set of epics. Product description ontologies of a plurality of second computer software products are compared to the product description ontology of the first computer software product, and in response, a list of product functions that are missing from the first computer software product but that are relevant to the first computer software product is generated. The list of product functions that are omitted from the first computer software product but that are relevant to the first computer software product is weighted and output as a weighted list. The weighted list may be used as an input to a software development management platform on which the first computer software product is developed.
