Goals The aim of the Software Requirements course is to teach fundamental concepts such as defining, documenting, analyzing, tracking, and managing requirements in the software development process. The course teaches the necessary steps and techniques to understand how software can be tailored to meet user needs and functionality.
Course Content Introduction and Basic Concepts, Software Development Process, Defining Software Requirements, Functional and Non-Functional Requirements, User Requirements, System Requirements, Determining Functional Requirements, Performance Requirements, Requirement Techniques, Requirement Documentation Standards and Formats, Use Case and Scenario Analysis, Requirement Models and Diagrams, Data Flow Diagrams and Workflows, Analysis and Evaluation of Requirements, Requirement Tracking and Management, Requirement Management Tools and Software, Examples and Project Work.
Learning Outcomes 1) Define the basic stages of software development and explain the role of software requirements in this process.
2) Apply methods of identifying, documenting, classifying, modeling, and verifying software requirements.
3) Identify and compare functional and non-functional requirements.
4) Compile a list of different requirement gathering techniques and develop strategies to manage these requirements effectively.
5) Utilize appropriate tools and techniques for requirement modeling and documentation.
6) Utilize appropriate tools and techniques for requirement modeling and documentation.
