Requirements Engineering

Using the latest research and driven by practical experience from industry, this book gives useful hints to practitioners on how to write and structure requirements. It will benefit those seeking to develop their knowledge of requirements engineering process.

Written from a Systems Engineering perspective, not just software engineering, meaning that this is full of examples drawn from domains such as rail, aerospace, defence and automobile

Presents the most thorough treatment of traceability, including the important concept of "rich traceability", of any book on the subject Chapters cover principles, process, modelling, management, tool support and other topics Includes new tool descriptions
Written by academics and practitioners of Requirements Engineering for students and qualified engineers
The three authors have 60 years experience between them in teaching and apply Requirements Engineering in higher education and across a range of industry sectors
