Problem
|
The current process for validation of requirements to the use case and activity diagrams is entirely manual. The analyst must go through the system requirements attempting to locate requirements dealing with a particular component or activity. It is believed the support of an automated tool that analyzes requirements for potential defects such as ambiguous terms, incomplete requirements and missing requirements can be utilized by analyst to identify missing components and/or incomplete diagrams in support of this validation activity. In support of the development of diagrams RA can provide support when executed on the high level documentation. The analyst can input key terms and extract information contained in the document that addresses functionality dealing with those terms or activities. The tool can also be run on use cases for identification of ambiguous, incomplete or inconsistent information.

Objective
|
It is believed that Requirements Assistant can support IV&V Analysts in validating System Requirements to System Reference Models .The process for developing use case diagrams involves reviewing high level documentation such as Concept of Operations documentation and developing the supporting use cases and activity diagrams. These diagrams must then be validated to the system requirements. The information extracted from the high level documentation for generating use case and activity diagrams is consistent with information that an analyst would extract from high level concepts documentation to develop the input files needed for executing the Requirements Assistant tool.
