ABSTRACT: Requirements are one of the most critical aspects of modern systems development and also one of the least understood. This tutorial will present a comprehensive overview of industry best practices for requirements development, covering elicitation, analysis, validation, specification, allocation, and verification. An introduction to model-based techniques for developing requirements will also be provided. Attendees will leave with a thorough understanding of techniques and tools for handling common requirements challenges.
