The consequences can be for one of the following opera- tions (internal customers) or the end customer experience (external cus- tomer).“ Severity: „The degree of severity of the Potential Effect(s) of Failure. Failures appear with serious consequences as high risk, i.e. with a high ranting number for the risk (rating value). “ Cause: „Potential cause for failure. “ Occurrence: „Probability of the occurrence of the potential cause. Frequent occur- rence appears to be risky, i.e. it is assigned a high-risk number (rating value)“ Object: The term "object" is used for all the concrete items in a development project: samples, project planning, prototyping, costing, risk analysis, etc. Maturity: The term maturity is commonly described in terms of the ability of an organ- ization or of a particular method or action. Quality: DGQ: „Realisierte Beschaffenheit einer Einheit bezüglich der Qualitätsforder- ung“- „Implemented Characteristics of a unit with respect to the quality require- ments“ ISO 9000: „Grad, in dem ein Satz inhärenter Merkmale Forderungen erfüllt“ - “Degree to which a set of inherent characteristics fulfills requirements” Fachkreis „Qualität & Controlling“: „Qualität ist der Grad der Erfüllung von Vereinbarungen (Forderungen) und Erwartungen“ (Wünschen) bezüglich Merkmalen, Terminen und Kosten“- „Quality is the degree of fulfillment of agreements (requirements) and expectations (wishes) with respect to charac- teristics, deadlines and cost“ Control Board (Dräger 2012, page 15): The Control Board is - if necessary - a com- mittee from the project sponsor that takes over for the project, the project man- agement tasks and responsibilities of the project principal. The members of Page 9 of 163 0 Glossary the Control Board are selected so that they represent the most important peo- ple and groups involved in the project. The project manager will inform the members of the Control Board regularly about the current status of the project, so they can react in time in case of deviations from the project plan. The Con- trol Board is the first escalation path for the project manager (except for Project Change Request, 7.4). Complexity vs. Complicatedness: The main difference is the following: Assuming that an item or issue is complex, one needs to research / learn something new or innovative or understand the issues in order to overcome the issue and take the appropriate corrective actions. When an item or an issue is complicated, it requires "only" extended efforts to cope with, all based on existing knowledge. Risk: The word "risk" appears in several languages Arabic: "Gift, random and unexpected, but some luck" Ancient Greek: "root, Cliff" Chinese: "probability of danger" Italian (15th century): "danger, risk"; Italian from older. ris (i) co, actually "cliff (which a vessel is circumnavigating)" Page 10 of 163 0 Table of figures Table of figures Figure 1: List of risks ................................................................................................ 27 Figure 2: Risk evaluation – initial – expected after corrective action – after corrective action ........................................................................................................................ 27 Figure 3: Stage Gate Process at Dräger Safety (Dräger 2012) ................................ 28 Figure 4: Exemplary risk categories and classification of technical risks (Wißler 2005, page 25) ................................................................................................................... 34 Figure 5: Toyota – start up and pre-production cost depending on Quality Function Deployment (QFD) (Sullivan, Lawrence P. 1986) ..................................................... 40 Figure 6: Reduction in the early fail rate of central processing units (CPUs) at Intel over 2 decades (Crook, D.L. 1990, page 2-11): ........................................................ 41 Figure 7: Reduction of ramp up times for the successive generation of Dynamic Random Access Memories (DRAMs) ....................................................................... 42 Figure 8: Relationships between the risk management principles, framework and process (ISO 31000, 2009)....................................................................................... 46 Figure 9: Classification regarding the research method and description of relatively recent academic papers relevant for this thesis ........................................................ 47 Figure 10: Economic relevant quality (English text – see list above) ........................ 51 Figure 11: Deming Cycle .......................................................................................... 52 Figure 12: RADAR of the EFQM model – illustration of the context between RADAR and Deming Cycle .................................................................................................... 53 Figure 13: IM:PULS model ....................................................................................... 54 Figure 14: Cost per failure along product life cycle (Pfeiffer, T. 2010) ...................... 55 Figure 15: The KANO model (extended) .................................................................. 57 Figure 16: Mean percentage change in the performance of the award-winning companies compared to the comparison companies for (Boulter, L. et al. 2005) ..... 60 Figure 17: cost estimation regarding defect prevention and failure cost for changes (DGQ 2008) .............................................................................................................. 63 Figure 18: Examples for functional requirement categories (in terms of severity).

  • Constructing True Model-Based Requirements in Sysml
    systems Article Constructing True Model-Based Requirements in SysML Alejandro Salado * and Paul Wach Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, VA 24061, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-540-231-0483 Received: 5 February 2019; Accepted: 26 March 2019; Published: 28 March 2019 Abstract: Some authors suggest that transitioning requirements engineering from the traditional statements in natural language with shall clauses to model-based requirements within a Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) environment could improve communication, requirements traceability, and system decomposition, among others. Requirement elements in the Systems Modeling Language (SysML) fail to fulfill this objective, as they are really a textual requirement in natural language as a model element. Current efforts to directly leverage behavioral and structural models of the system lack an overarching theoretical framework with which to assess the adequacy of how those models are used to capture requirements. This paper presents an approach to construct true model-based requirements in SysML. The presented approach leverages some of SysML’s behavioral and structural models and diagrams, with specific construction rules derived from Wymore’s mathematical framework for MBSE and taxonomies of requirements and interfaces. The central proposition of the approach is that every requirement can be modeled as an input/output transformation. Examples are used to show how attributes traditionally thought of as non-functional requirements can be captured, with higher precision, as functional transformations. Keywords: requirements; model-based requirements; model-based systems engineering (MBSE); System Modeling Language (SysML) 1. Introduction Problem formulation, traditionally in the form of requirements, is considered by some authors to be the cornerstone of systems engineering [1].

  • Merging Functional Requirements with Test Cases

Examiner: Ulrik Eklund E-mail: [email protected] Malmö University, Department of Computer Science. 2 Master Thesis Project: Merging Functional Requirements with Test Cases Abstract A lot of research is done in requirements engineering and testing but often the extensive literature is missing on defining good methods for linking functional requirements with test cases. Most of the delays occurring in the software development projects are because of incomplete or inaccurate functional requirements. The two main goals of our project are to achieve a successful software project by First, to design a template, which will merge functional requirements with test cases and second is to find the benefits of the aligning requirements to test cases. Changing, updating and tracing the requirements during the development of the project is not an easy task. The main reason for project failure is due to possibility of not fulfilling specified project requirements, so one way to solve this problem is to merge functional requirements with test cases. Thus removes the need of creating a separate requirements document, which will improve the traceability process between requirements and testing, thus leads to high quality and efficient development.

  • Impact of Avoiding Non-Functional Requirements in Software Development Stage
    American Journal of Information Science and Computer Engineering Vol. 3, No. 4, 2017, pp. 52-55 http://www.aiscience.org/journal/ajisce ISSN: 2381-7488 (Print); ISSN: 2381-7496 (Online) Impact of Avoiding Non-functional Requirements in Software Development Stage Muhammad Shahid1, *, Khawaja Awais Tasneem2 Centre of Excellence in Science and Applied Technologies (CESAT), Islamabad, Pakistan Abstract Non-functional requirements such as security, performance, usability, scalability and maintenance define the quality attributes or constraints of software to be developed. During the development of software, they are as critical as their counterpart functional requirements because they ensure the quality of software product. Avoiding non-functional requirements or constraints during the requirements engineering process could lead to the failure of software projects. In order to investigate this problem, we have reviewed several published research papers. Based on the study of previously published research this paper gives an overview of impact of avoiding nonfunctional requirements of software project during requirements engineering process. In this research we will also give our recommendations for the improvement of requirements engineering practices.

The impact of a missing or misunderstood requirement can add to the project cost and delay product launch due to rework both of the application code, documentation updates, and addition test passes. Building a thorough test plan very early in the product development cycle has the potential for early discovery of missing requirements with attendant reduction in project costs and schedule improvement.
