Using a Functional Model as the Basis for User
Requirements
1 day workshop
A functional model represents software as the users of
the software understand it. It consists of the logical or ‘real world’
functions provided by the software and the data used to support the
functions. All the components of the model are defined in user terminology
so that it can be used for communication between the business world and IT.
The components of the model are defined using the rules
used by function point analysis. This means that the model can be easily
extended, formally or informally, to provide functional sizing.
At the completion of the course, participants will be
able to:
-
build a functional model from a software requirements
specification
-
build a functional model of an existing system
-
use functional modelling to establish software
requirements.
-
communicate software functionality using a functional
model.
