Software engineering related to systems requirements
R. Stevens · 2002
Current software standards (rightly) take a reductionist view of the methodology needed for software development. But for developments of large 'software systems', the needs for commonality, or developments of software within the systems lifecycle, current standards may not be enough. Some help towards these problems may be available by abstracting the systems engineering process. ISD has been developing a structured approach to handling systems requirements, and this has revealed many of the problems and incompatibilities between the two disciplines. It also provides some pointers to help complex software developers.>
