text: 'The vision of On-the-Fly (OTF) Computing is to compose and provide software
services ad hoc, based on requirement descriptions in natural language. Since
non-technical users write their software requirements themselves and in unrestricted
natural language, deficits occur such as inaccuracy and incompleteness. These
deficits are usually met by natural language processing methods, which have to
face special challenges in OTF Computing because maximum automation is the goal.
In this paper, we present current automatic approaches for solving inaccuracies
and incompletenesses in natural language requirement descriptions and elaborate
open challenges. In particular, we will discuss the necessity of domain-specific
resources and show why, despite far-reaching automation, an intelligent and guided
integration of end users into the compensation process is required. In this context,
we present our idea of a chat bot that integrates users into the compensation
process depending on the given circumstances. '

text: 'On-The-Fly Computing is the vision of covering software needs of end users
by fully-automatic compositions of existing software services. End users will
receive so-called service compositions tailored to their very individual needs,
based on natural language software descriptions. This everyday language may contain
inaccuracies and incompleteness, which are well-known challenges in requirements
engineering. In addition to existing approaches that try to automatically identify
and correct these deficits, there are also new trends to involve users more in
the elaboration and refinement process. In this paper, we present the relevant
state of the art in the field of automated detection and compensation of multiple
inaccuracies in natural language service descriptions and name open challenges
needed to be tackled in NL-based software service composition. '
