TEACHING THE GENERATION OF OPERATIONS BASED REQUIREMENTS
Joseph C. DeFoe · INCOSE International Symposium · 1994
Abstract This paper presents specific recommendations that have been found effective within IBM (now Loral) Federal Systems for teaching the process of generating operations‐based requirements. Specific recommendations include: Base the workshop on a holistic, flexible process Base exercises on a problem the students can relate to as a user Ensure the students understand the needs the entity addresses before allowing them to begin requirements analysis Have all exercises involve teams Have at least two exercises using each critical method or technique covered in the workshop Have multiple teams work the same problem Construct class requirements definition examples such that there is at least one with a clearly superior resolution, and one with number of nearly equivalent “okay” resolutions
