T-10: QFD for Software Development: Joint Requirements Engineering

Sixten Schockert, University of Cologne (Germany)

Half-day tutorial
Date: Wednesday, September 4   Time: 01:00 p.m. – 04.00 p.m.
Tutorial Language: English

Software development is becoming more and more complex and dynamic. The strength of traditional Software Requirements Engineering methods lies in formalization of existing user requirements. However, if – such as in Internet applications, for example - requirements and/or technical solutions are unclear, a flexible, fast process is required that integrates know-how of users and developers and focuses on the essential. Quality Function Deployment meets these requirements. QFD is aimed at a software that presents not all technically possible characteristics but only those that are important for success. Quality is what the customer assumes it to be. Software Requirements Engineering with QFD is goal-oriented, rapid, cooperative and customer-focused. The tutorial presents a guide to the method and shows several practical examples.
