Systems requirements engineering—State of the methodology

Abstract

Abstract There are many references about the characteristics of a good requirement. But what is the process for developing clear, unambiguous requirements, and how do we know when we have defined the requirements successfully? This paper investigates the current state of the methodology for developing complex system requirements. Significant work has been accomplished over the last several years to describe requirements development and systems engineering. This paper identifies and investigates requirements development methodologies and techniques. ©2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Syst Eng 16
