C3 seems odd to me. <br><br><i>"Kirsten will include a context diagram in her SRS.<br>State two functional requirements of the Parking Infringement Monitoring System (PIMS) that this context diagram would show."</i><br>
<br>1. The context diagram would show <b>no functional requirements</b>. A context diagram doesn't show <b>any</b> processes: the system is a black box. The CD will only show data flows between the system and its external entities. These data flows might <b>suggest</b> FRs hidden in the black box, but they in themselves are not FRs.<br>
<br>2. If we look at the UCD, providing functional requirements is easy enough, but what about the examples? <br>The FRs are shown as use cases and are quite specific (e.g. Print parking ticket); I don't see how you can provide an <b>example</b> of printing a parking ticket.<br>
<br>3. One of the main FRs is to take the car arrival/departure event data from the RDL and calculate overstays - but this calculation is not included in the UCD.<br><br>How did you guys respond to this question?<br clear="all">
