Excellent !
15 April 2003
Format:Paperback
This book presents in the space of some 200 pages, split into 9 chapters, a clear and concise introduction to a state-of-the-art approach to requirements engineering (RE). It starts out by introducing a generic RE process, which is then instatiated, later in the book, into concrete processes for generating stakeholder requirements (i.e. user requirements) and system requirements.
The beautiful thing aboout this generic process (and the concrete ones to follow it) is that V&V and change management are intrinsically part of it. The authors are particularly strong in their treatment of traceability. They have gone into an unusual depth. The book has some good advice on writing better requirements . In particular, I find the idea of requirements boilerplates (i.e. templates for each class of requirements) extremely useful. The book concludes with an introduction/demonstration of the DOORS RE tool, from Telelogic (the affiliation of two of the authors).
Overall, this is an excellent book that every requirements engineer, should have on their desk.

Practical application
7 Aug 2010
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I work in a large financial institution with projects that span across lines of business. I train on process improvement and requirements is one of the key areas I focus on. This book is short and to the point. It provides good examples and is a great read for someone who is just starting out in requirements management or requirements documentation. It provides information on the management aspects of requirements work and practical advice on requirements ellicitation.

The reference continues to be a classic and essential foundation for the growing requirements management domain, an area greatly needed in the complexity of software and systems engineering. It provides guidance to users, managers, developers, quality assurance, security experts, and analysts to overcome the basic challenges in systems development.
