Hi Claudia. I think of nonfunctional requirements as if they were <i>adjectives</i>, e.g. the software must <b>be:</b> fast, reliable, accurate, secure.<br><br>The functional requirements I treat as <i>verbs</i>, e.g. it should be able to <b>do</b>: process, sort, print, calculate, display, store, search.<br>
<br>In a way <i>both</i> of them are objectives in that the developers want to achieve them.<br><br>On 3 March 2011 10:10, Claudia Graham <<a href="mailto:claudia.graham@overnewton.vic.edu.au">claudia.graham@overnewton.vic.edu.au</a>> wrote:<br>
