IEEE Std 1233, 1998 and 1233-1996 aIEEE Guide for Developing System Requirements Specifications -Description
Abstract: Guidance for the development of the set of requirements, System Requirements Specification (SyRS), that will satisfy an expressed need is provided. Developing an SyRS includes the identification, organization, presentation, and modification of the requirements. Also addressed are the conditions for incorporating operational concepts, design constraints, and design configuration requirements into the specification. This guide also covers the necessary characteristics and qualities of individual requirements and the set of all requirements.
Keywords: requirement, SyRS, system, system requirements specification
