Abstract
This talk addresses requirements definition and management with a primary emphasis on the various kinds of requirements that exist for a system, and the characteristics that distinguish them. Without the proper specification of these characteristics, the ability to implement them effectively and demonstrate that they have been satisfied is compromised. Implications on the scope of validation testing for the various types of requirements is also discussed.
