Like all non-functional requirements and quality attributes, [6] architecturally significant requirements should be specified SMART. Quality attribute scenarios [2] are one way to achieve the S (specific) and the M (measured) criteria in SMART. The Software Engineering Institute recommends Quality Attribute Workshops for this effort. [7]
Requirements engineering tools are usually software products to ease the requirements engineering (RE) processes and allow for more systematic and formalized handling of requirements, change management and traceability. [1] [2]
The first use of the term requirements engineering was probably in 1964 in the conference paper "Maintenance, Maintainability, and System Requirements Engineering", [3] but it did not come into general use until the late 1990s with the publication of an IEEE Computer Society tutorial [4] in March 1997 and the establishment of a conference ...

In systems engineering and software engineering, requirements analysis focuses on the tasks that determine the needs or conditions to meet the new or altered product or project, taking account of the possibly conflicting requirements of the various stakeholders, analyzing, documenting, validating, and managing software or system requirements.
Broadly, functional requirements define what a system is supposed to do and non-functional requirements define how a system is supposed to be.Functional requirements are usually in the form of "system shall do <requirement>", an individual action or part of the system, perhaps explicitly in the sense of a mathematical function, a black box description input, output, process and control ...
Requirements come from different sources, like the business person ordering the product, the marketing manager and the actual user. These people all have different requirements for the product. Using requirements traceability, an implemented feature can be traced back to the person or group that wanted it during the requirements elicitation.
Requirements traceability is a sub-discipline of requirements management within software development and systems engineering.Traceability as a general term is defined by the IEEE Systems and Software Engineering Vocabulary [1] as (1) the degree to which a relationship can be established between two or more products of the development process, especially products having a predecessor-successor ...
