Book Description
The method guides engineers in modeling operational, functional, and design requirements, considering both static and dynamic aspects of systems.
With an end-to-end example of the method, developed throughout the book, readers learn how to
* develop conceptual models of the structural and operational properties of computer-based systems and their software
* develop systematically operational scenarios and use cases describing the interaction of the system with its environment
* elicit and specify functional and nonfunctional requirements
* allocate requirements to components of a conceptual model and use the model for the refinement and derivation of requirements
* understand the issues of mapping the conceptual model to the design model
Core audiences include those involved in the development of complex or mission-critical computer-based systems and their software, systems engineers, computer-based-systems engineers, software engineers, engineering managers, and students at undergraduate and graduate levels.
