Requirements Review Education Curriculum for Embedded Software Practitioners
Pages 184 - 187
Abstract
The author teaches requirements engineering for embedded software engineers in Japan. Conventional requirements review methods based on overall quality characteristics such as clarity and feasibility have the problem that the interpretation of quality characteristics becomes dependent on the individual. In our education program, we teach the requirements review method based on the terminology of the specification sentences. In this paper, we introduce the content of the teaching and the resulting impressions of the requirements review method.
