Requirements Writing for System Engineering (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Learn how to create good requirements when designing hardware and software systems. While this book emphasizes writing traditional "shall" statements, it also provides guidance on use case design and creating user stories in support of agile methodologies. The book surveys modeling techniques and various tools that support requirements collection and analysis. You'll learn to manage requirements, including discussions of document types and digital approaches using spreadsheets, generic databases, and dedicated requirements tools. Good, clear examples are presented, many related to real-world work the author has done during his career.

Requirements Writing for System Engineering covers techniques for defining user needs so you can determine which combination of approaches to use for your projects. You'll also learn how to analyze different development methodologies so that you can determine the advantages and disadvantages of different requirements approaches andimplement them correctly as your needs evolve. Unlike most requirements books, Requirements Writing for System Engineering teaches writing both hardware and software requirements because many projects include both areas. To exemplify this approach, two example projects are developed throughout the book, one focusing on hardware and the other on software.

This book

• Presents many techniques for capturing requirements.
• Demonstrates gap analysis to find missing requirements.
• Shows how to address both software and hardware, as most projects involve both.
• Provides extensive examples of "shall" statements, user stories, and use cases.
• Explains how to supplement or replace traditional requirement statements with user stories and use cases that work well in agile development environments

Autorenporträt

George Koelsch is a system engineer who resides in Northern Virginia within the DC metro area. He started writing requirements 40 years ago while in the US Army, and has continued that work for the last 30 years as a contractor for the Federal Government. He became an efficiency expert during a five year stint as an Industrial Engineer at Michelin Tire Corporation, and he then applied that new skill to system engineering to tailor the lifecycle development process. He was among the first requirement engineers in the DC area to employ such a technique. Koelsch has authored ten non-fiction articles on computers, coin collecting, stamp collecting, and high-energy physics. He recently decided to combine his two passions, system engineering and writing.
