Despite an undeniable progress in the whole software creation process, software development is still more art than science. The requirements analysis is a highly critical step in the software life-cycle. Requirement managements errors are the most common errors in the software projects. The proper and effective requirements management saves the overall project costs. The key motivation behind this work was opening a way of finding approaches to managing the requirements appearing in such large software projects as compilers for various programming languages. This paper is an introduction to a full presentation of requirements management solution in which the requirements and implementation information is placed directly in the source code. We concentrate on describing a context in which the requirements management process takes place, trying to present the most interesting existing solutions, indicating the problems and opening a discussion on what ways to follow in the future scientific research.
