Introduction
Requirements specify the “what” of a system, not the “how”. Requirements engineering provides
the appropriate mechanism to understand what the customer desires, analyzing need, assessing
feasibility, negotiating a reasonable solution, specifying the solution clearly, validating the
specifications and managing the requirements as they are transformed into a working system.
Thus, requirements engineering is the disciplined application of proven principles, methods,
tools, and notations to describe a proposed system’s intended behavior and its associated
constraints.
6.1 Requirement Engineering
The requirements engineering includes the following activities:
Identification and documentation of customer and user’s needs.
