Introduction to Requirements Engineering
Ian K Bray
The focus of software engineering is moving from writing reliable large-scale software to ensuring that this software meets the needs of the users for whom it was designed. Investigating and describing the (often changing) requirements and their context, together with the determination and documentation of the characteristics of a system that will meet those requirements, is the domain of requirements engineering.
This book is intended for undergraduates encountering software requirements engineering for the first time. It is a hard subject for which there is no formulaic approach. It therefore begins with small, relatively simple case studies and builds on these to provide the opportunities to scale up this expertise to large industrial projects. The foundations, so often glossed over, are carefully developed to give the reader an understanding of why particular approaches and techniques are appropriate in different situations.
The book is divided into three parts: the first provides a guide to all the important requirements engineering topics; the second gives more detail on useful techniques (for problem definition and modelling); the third contains the complete case studies, extracts from which are used in parts one and two. Requirements engineering is a jargon-filled subject, so a comprehensive glossary is provided as well as definitions within the text.
Key features
- Covers all the requirements engineering tasks and documents
- Clear explanation of the foundations
- Introduction to all the important techniques
- Practical guidance on accomplishing the tasks
- Guidelines for tackling different types of application
- Examples of complete requirements documents and specifications
- Numerous pointers for further, advanced study

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Zoom Books Company, Lynden, Washington, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
