5.0 out of 5 stars A very well written introduction to Requirements Engineering, August 25, 1996

By A Customer

This review is from: Requirements Engineering: Frameworks for Understanding (Paperback)

Wieringa understands to explain very well on over 400 pages the methods and models of Requirements Engineering. If you have to work on this subject, as student, researcher or practitioner, this book will be your handbook. In part one Wieringa defines a methodological framework, in part two methods for requirements detrmination were analyzed using the framework from part one. In part III the results of this analysis were used to build an integrated framework for requirements engineering.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best books I have read on RE, April 29, 2004

This review is from: Requirements Engineering: Frameworks for Understanding (Paperback)

This book provides a conceptual framework for understanding requirements that can be applied in any methodology. I do IV&V. For many of the requirements/SRS I see, the analysts don't have a good grasp on requirement levels: how far to decompose, what level of detail to include. After reading this book, where you are in the levels will always be clear to you, or if you got lost, you will be able to find your way back to where you should be.
