Models, notations and processes for requirements elicitation, representation, and design are treated in depth.

The specific objectives of this course are:

1. To convey a thorough understanding of the requirements definition phase of software development

2. To instill in students appreciation of the object-oriented approach to requirements analysis and design, and its current documentation tools.

3. To provide a solid foundation for the application of techniques used in software requirements gathering, modelling and design
