SEG 2105 Lecture Notes - Lecture 5: Use Case, Computing Platform, Domain Analysis
Document Summary
Helps software engineers understand the problem they are solving. The process by which software engineers learn about the domain to better understand the problem they are solving. Domain: the general field of business or technology in which the clients will use the software. An opportunity that will result in some benefit. A good problem statement is short and succinct. Narrow the scope by defining a more precise problem. Exclude broad things or determine high-level goals to get scope. A set of criteria according to which proposed solutions either definitely solve the problem or fail to solve it. The description of the resources and components at disposal to solve the problem. Stakeholders: an individual, team, or organization with interests in, or concerns related to, the system. A requirement is a statement describing either an aspect of what the system must do or a constrain on the system"s development.
