What CS510 Assignment 1 asks
This assignment focuses on the analysis and refinement of raw stakeholder statements for a Smart Ride-Hailing System (SRHS). Students must apply software requirement engineering principles to categorize statements and identify quality flaws. The work involves transforming informal inputs into formal, standardized requirement specifications and correcting violations of quality characteristics. You will produce two structured tables to demonstrate your understanding of requirement types and criteria.

Question 1: Requirement Categorization & Specification Matrix
10 marksAnalyze statements S2, S5, S6, and S7 from the provided scenario. For each, identify the requirement type, such as functional, non-functional, domain, inverse, or design and implementation constraints. You must then rewrite each statement into a formal, standardized requirement format starting with 'The system shall'.

Question 2: Requirement Analysis & Quality Flaw Rectification
10 marksExamine statements S1, S3, and S4 to identify which key quality characteristic each violates, such as feasibility, verifiability, or ambiguity. Provide a concise explanation for why the statement fails to meet these criteria. Finally, rewrite each statement to create a valid, quality-compliant requirement.
- What to submit
- One doc or docx document containing the completed tables with clear headings for each task.
