INTEGRATING FORMAL METHODS INTO SOFTWARE SPECIFICATION 2

INTRODUCTION

Requirement Management
Process of eliciting, organizing, documenting and establishing and maintaining agreement between the
customer and the project team on the changing requirements of the system.

Internet of Things
the Internet of Things is made up of devices – from simple sensors to smartphones and wearables – connected to
the internet, collecting and sharing data

PROBLEM STATEMENT

 Because of these challenges of developing IoTs.

 What are the requirement management challenges in developing IoTs application.

 So how can you effectively develop and deliver the Internet of Things products?

 How can you make sure that the product you’ve developed meets its original requirements?

 The key is to ensure best Requirement Management practices.

 RESEARCH QUESTIONS FINDINGS

 RQ1:
 Security. Top challenge.
 IoT can scale up the attack surface for any kind of a cyberattack. The risk is going to be a distributed attack on a
lot of things.
 we will have security breaches that will leak important private information because of the sensorization of the
environment. I think it’s critical as an industry that we take that risk seriously

IOTS CHALLENGES

Developing IoTs, Challenges tasks are:

 High Complexity of distributed computing
 Lack of general guidelines or framework that handle low level communication and simplify high level
implementation
 Multiple Programming Languages
 Various Communication protocol

RM TOOLS TACKLING IOT CHALLENGES

 Live Collaboration
This means they need to be able to share information, and they need to be aware of when information changes.
To support this, Rational DOORS Next Generation on cloud offers sharing within and between documents.
 Consistency
Dealing with the Internet of Things, project data can easily become very complex. So, teams need relevant
information to be organized logically and consistently.
system requirements can be kept in a system requirements specification that includes all the appropriate attributes,
such as cost, risk or priority, along with any additional information deemed useful.

 Traceability
need to understand relationships between that information, such as linked requirements and links between requirements
and tests
In Rational DOORS Next Generation, users can “link as they think,” creating relationships between new requirements
and responding to higher level information simply by using drag-and-drop
 Understanding change
A change has two main steps:
– Understanding the impact of the change before it is made
– Ensuring that all impacted areas have been changed as necessary
With Rational DOORS Next Generation, a full history is maintained every time a requirement changes. The team can access the
history and determine what changed, who changed it and when it changed. 18
 Requirements re-use
Due to the complex and challenging nature of the Internet of Things, companies that are building and engineering
things are also thinking about how to create higher levels of re-use.
