Life Cycle Phase Stakeholder of Interest
Q3. The following is the definition for a ___________________________________ One of many statements that constrain or guide the design of the system in such a way that the system will be useful to one of more of its stakeholders.
4. Identify the SE Process Model would be best for the following situations;
Best used when the system requirements are not established and activities must be performed to determine system objectives, analyze risk, and define requirements.
Supports a sequential system development process where the requirements are well defined at the beginning of the project.
Begins with understanding the stakeholder needs, decomposes/defines the system, and then supports the Integration and qualification process.
Q5. List the 5 Functions of the Design Process.

Physical Quantitative Qualitative Mental visual representation, Symbolic, Textual, or Graphic numerical, Analytical, Simulation, Judgmental abstractions of thought tangible representation, Full scale, Subscale Mockup or Breadboard
Q7. The following is the definition for a __________________________
A collection of requirements that completely define the constraints and performance requirements for a specific physical entity that is part of the system.
Q8. Are the following statements True or False?
a. ____ Requirements state "what" and "how well".
b. ____ Requirements define the solutions for the design.
c. ____ Requirements are important, but are not expensive to correct if determined to be incomplete or inaccurate.

Q10. Is the following statement True or False? ______
System requirements should limit the number of possible solutions and focus on one approach to the system implementation.

a. Yes No
b. Explanation:
Q12. What product/diagram is developed in the SE process to help us understand where the system starts and where the system stops?
Q13. What is developed in the SE process to help us understand the Stakeholder's objectives and assist in identifying trade studies that may need to be performed?
Q14. Requirements do not necessarily just show up on the engineer's desk. Identify three (3) items that are used to collect information for the development, analysis, and refinement of the requirements.
Q15. The Buede text identifies four categories or partitions of requirements that can be used to assist us with making sure that the necessary requirements have been identified. They are;

b. _____ Requirements should be viewed hierarchically.
c. _____ Stakeholder Requirements are developed based on the engineer's interpretation of the solution.
d. _____ Good requirements should specify the implementation details of the design approach that should be used.
e. _____ Systems Engineering should include the customer and user as a part of requirements development process.
f. _____ When developing the System Specification, understanding needs is more important that just collecting assumed requirements from the stakeholders.
Q25. A user has a smart phone. It can navigate using GPS. It can make phone calls using cell phone towers. It can take pictures of objects. It can stream video from movie providers (e.g. Netflix.) It can deliver news from a news provider (e.g. BBC.) If the user breaks the screen, the user can take it to a repair facility to have it fixed. Draw a context diagram that shows the system and the external entities (people and systems.)
