Exercises

Note any challenges you faced in doing so.

2. What aspects of a television set would be important to abstract from the perspective of:

• A consumer wishing to buy one?
• An engineer responsible for designing one?
• A retailer who sells them?
• The manufacturer?

Make certain that your first paragraph summarizes the intent of the system, as the first paragraph in the SRS case study does. Also, emphasize the functional requirements — that is, those which a non technical end user might state as to how the system should behave – and avoid stating technical requirements — for example, "This system must run on a Windows NT platform, and must use the TCP/IP protocol to ...".

4. Read the case study for a Conference Room Reservation System (CRRS) in Appendix B. In your opinion, how effective is this case study as an abstraction: are there details that you think could have been omitted, and/or missing details that you think would have been important to include? If you had an opportunity to interview the intended users of the CRRS, what additional questions might you ask them to better refine this abstraction?
