Before focusing on the solution, we must thoroughly understand the problem.
“He felt that it was possible to waste a lot of time writing programs when one should have spent that time thinking more about the problem.”
David L. Parnas speaking about one of his teachers, Leo
Aldo Finzi.“Who Taught Me About Software
Engineering Research?”

What type of system are we building?The HOPE System is:•An Interactive System: A system that involves a significant degree of user interaction.•A Safety Critical System: Where failure of a system endangers human life.
![Page 4: Aaron Jacobs, Allen Helton, Chris Mudd, Jeff Allain, Jessi Cardoso, Matthew Jacobs, Prerak Patel, Richard…](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062601/5a4d1bfe7f8b9ab0599ed89b/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Interactive SystemsIn an interactive system, special consideration
must be taken in formulating ‘external requirements.’
External requirements: Requirements which may be placed on both the product and the process and which are derived from the environment in which the system is developed.
Example: Safety- To ensure that the speech-to-text function does not produce undesirable results, a limited dictionary will be utilized. This dictionary will constrain the possible interpretations by the software when a person speaks.
![Page 5: Aaron Jacobs, Allen Helton, Chris Mudd, Jeff Allain, Jessi Cardoso, Matthew Jacobs, Prerak Patel, Richard…](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062601/5a4d1bfe7f8b9ab0599ed89b/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Safety scenarioAn old person wants to relay a message to
their caregiver regarding an important doctors appointment, the person says,
“I need to go to the proctologist right away.”But the system interprets the speech as “I need to go to the proctologist Friday.”The old person subsequently suffers from
renal failure due to the misinterpretation of the system.

Critical SystemsThe failure of a critical system may result
from a failure to meet a functional requirement but, more often, it results from a failure of the system to satisfy some non-functional constraint on its operation.
Principle non-functional constraints relevant to critical systems:reliability, performance, security, usability, safety
![Page 7: Aaron Jacobs, Allen Helton, Chris Mudd, Jeff Allain, Jessi Cardoso, Matthew Jacobs, Prerak Patel, Richard…](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062601/5a4d1bfe7f8b9ab0599ed89b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The difficulty of formulating non-functional requirements
Certain constraints, for example the availability rate of the system (a reliability requirement), are related to the design solution that is unknown at the requirements stage.
Non-functional requirements tend to be related to one or more functional requirements.
Non-functional requirements tend to conflict and contradict each other.
There are no rules and guidelines for determining when non-functional requirements are optimally met.
![Page 8: Aaron Jacobs, Allen Helton, Chris Mudd, Jeff Allain, Jessi Cardoso, Matthew Jacobs, Prerak Patel, Richard…](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062601/5a4d1bfe7f8b9ab0599ed89b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Some non-functional requirementsProduct requirements – specify the desired
characteristics that a system or subsystem must possess.
The HOPE System shall have an availability rate of 99%
The system shall be developed for the Google Android platform
Process requirements – are constraints placed upon the development process of the system.
A disaster recovery plan for the system development must be specified.
The system shall conform to the IEEE 830 standard for software requirements specification.
![Page 9: Aaron Jacobs, Allen Helton, Chris Mudd, Jeff Allain, Jessi Cardoso, Matthew Jacobs, Prerak Patel, Richard…](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062601/5a4d1bfe7f8b9ab0599ed89b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The importance of the emergency button
If the emergency button fails to meet performance or reliability requirements, the loss of human life may take place.
The system should have a fault-tolerant design: If each component, in turn, can continue to function when one of its subcomponents fails, this will allow the total system to continue to operate, as well.
At this stage of the project, it is difficult to quantify an achievable reliability and performance rate.

The ability to accommodate change“One must anticipate changes before one begins the design.”
David L. Parnas“Designing Software for Ease of Extension and Contraction.”
![Page 11: Aaron Jacobs, Allen Helton, Chris Mudd, Jeff Allain, Jessi Cardoso, Matthew Jacobs, Prerak Patel, Richard…](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062601/5a4d1bfe7f8b9ab0599ed89b/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Accommodating changeWe must design a family of programs in which
some members are subsets of other family members or several family members share a common subset.
We must follow the following principles: Simplify functions so that each function
performs one task. Identify items that are likely to change. These
items are termed ‘secrets.’ Generating desired sentences and represent them
pictorially as well as associate with a sound/voice. Giving a specific meaning to each picture to
reduce the ambiguity .
![Page 12: Aaron Jacobs, Allen Helton, Chris Mudd, Jeff Allain, Jessi Cardoso, Matthew Jacobs, Prerak Patel, Richard…](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062601/5a4d1bfe7f8b9ab0599ed89b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Accommodating change (continued) Location of the specialized components in
separate modules. Designing intermodule interfaces that are
insensitive to the anticipated changes. The changeable aspects or “secrets” of the modules are not revealed by the interface.
The Uses Hierarchy Level 0: Providing a way for the users to select proper categories and navigate through various dimensions of vocabulary.Level I: -Placing emergency calls and messages. -Making each vocabulary item available through a search interface.
