Software Requirements Analysis and Specification
1997As we mentioned earlier, a fundamental problem of software engineering is the problem of scale. The complexity and size of applications employing automation, and consequently the complexity and size of software systems, are continuously increasing. As the scale changes to more complex and larger software systems, new problems occur that did not exist ...

Towards Dependable Software Requirement Specifications
1997Formal proof of potential software failures early in the lifecycle can both significantly enhance safety and reduce development costs. The use of appropriate structured methods will provide developers with early indications of safety related design failures.

Software Requirements Specification
1991Software requirements specification (SRS) is the starting point of the software development activity. Little importance was attached to this phase in the early days of software development. The emphasis was first on coding and then shifted to design. The tacit assumption in earlier approaches was that the developers understood the problem clearly when ...

Measurements in software requirements specification process
Microprocessing and Microprogramming, 1994Abstract We are seeking to find measures of risk that can be used by management and the developers. We will show which characteristics and constraints could be assessed directly from the requirements specification document in the form of numeric values.

Software requirements definition for a specification database
Proceedings of Joint 4th International Computer Science Conference and 4th Asia Pacific Software Engineering Conference, 2002The author proposes a method to build a relational database of software requirements specifications (SRSs) from textual and visual SRSs automatically. The author has been developing a requirements model named Requirements Frame, a text-based requirements language and a visual requirements language based on the model in order to improve the quality of ...

Audio-visual software requirements specification
Proceedings International Workshop on Multimedia Software Engineering (Cat. No.98EX222), 2002The author proposes an audio-visual software requirements definition method including an audio-visual software requirements specification (AVSRS) with an audio-visual requirements language and executing SRSs. The method proposed provides a describer for defining both the shape and semantics of icons to specify the requirements. The method also provides

A new defining approach for software requirement specifications
Proceedings IEEE Workshop on Software Technologies for Future Embedded Systems. WSTFES 2003, 2004Due to business demands including cost cutting and schedule shortening, we see many software development projects that directly make software specifications without writing requirement specification. Such projects have many problems. This paper describes the ZC method which defines the requirement specification by visualizing the requirement features ...

Identifying and measuring quality in a software requirements specification
[1993] Proceedings First International Software Metrics Symposium, 2002Numerous treatises exist that define appropriate qualities that should be exhibited by a well written software requirements specification (SRS). In most cases these are vaguely defined. The paper explores thoroughly the concept of quality in an SRS and defines attributes that contribute to that quality.

Software visual specification for requirement engineering education
Proceedings of the 10th International Conference on E-Education, E-Business, E-Management and E-Learning, 2019Requirement engineering course is perceived as an important course that become one of compulsory courses to be thought to Software Engineering graduates. However, Requirement Engineering Education (REE) is suffering from difficulty in content delivery (lecturer) and learning (student) due to the nature of Requirement Engineering theoretical and ...

Automatic transformation of organization of software requirements specifications
2010 Fourth International Conference on Research Challenges in Information Science (RCIS), 2010Specific software requirements can be organized with different ways, such as user class oriented organization, functional hierarchy oriented organization, stimulus oriented organization, and so on. User class oriented software requirements specification is easy to understand for each class of users' behaviors, but difficult to understand functional ...
