This document discusses different approaches to requirements modeling including scenario-based modeling using use cases and activity diagrams, data modeling using entity-relationship diagrams, and class-based modeling using class-responsibility-collaborator diagrams. Requirements modeling depicts requirements using text and diagrams to help validate requirements from different perspectives and uncover errors, inconsistencies, and omissions. The models focus on what the system needs to do at a high level rather than implementation details.
This lecture provide a review of requirement engineering process. The slides have been prepared after reading Ian Summerville and Roger Pressman work. This lecture is helpful to understand user, and user requirements.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

CHAPTER 6 REQUIREMENTS MODELING: SCENARIO based Model , Class based moddel
1.
2. What is Requirements modeling
Requirements modeling uses a combination of text and diagrammatic
forms to depict requirements in a way that is relatively easy to
understand
To validate software requirements, you need to examine them from
a number of different points of view. In this presentation we’ll consider
requirements modeling from three different perspectives: scenario-
based models, data(information) models, and class-based models.
Each represents requirements in a different “dimension,” thereby
increasing the probability that errors will be found, that inconsistency
will surface, and that omissions will be uncovered.
Why is it important?
3. Requirements analysis
The requirements modeling action results in one or more
of the following types of models:
•Scenario-based models of requirements from the point of view of various
system “actors”.
•Data models that depict the information domain for the problem.
•Class-oriented models that represent object-oriented classes (attributes
and operations) and the manner in which classes collaborate to achieve
system Requirements.
•Flow-oriented models that represent the functional elements of the
system and how they transform data as it moves through the system.
•Behavioral models that depict how the software behaves as a
consequence of external “events.
5. Overall Objectives and Philosophy
requirements modeling, your primary focus is on what, not how.
What user interaction occurs in a particular circumstance, what objects
does the system manipulate, what functions must the system perform,
what behaviors does the system exhibit, what interfaces are defined,
and what constraints apply The requirements model must achieve
three primary objectives: (1) to describe what the customer requires,
(2) to establish a basis for the creation of a software design, and (3) to
define a set of requirements that can be validated once the software is
built.
6. Analysis Rules of
Thumb
• The model should focus on requirements that are visible within the
problem or business domain. The level of abstraction should be relatively
high. "Don't get bogged down in details” that try to explain how the
system will work.
• Each element of the requirements model should add to an overall
understanding of software requirements and provide insight into the
information domain, function, and behavior of the system.
• Be certain that the requirements model provides value to all
stakeholders. Each constituency has its own use for the model.
• Keep the model as simple as it can be. Don't create additional diagrams
when they add no new information. Don’t use complex notational forms,
when a simple list will do.
8. SCENARIO-BASEDMODELING
Although the success of a computer-based system or
product is measured in many ways, user satisfaction
resides at the top of the list. If you understand how end
users (and other actors) want to interact with a system,
your software team will be better able to properly
characterize requirements and build meaningful analysis
and design models. Hence, requirements modeling with
UML begins with the creation of scenarios in the form of
use cases, activity diagrams.
9. Creating a Preliminary Use Case
we need to know(1) what to write about, (2) how much to
write about it, (3) how detailed to make your description,
and (4) how to organize the description?
These are the questions that must be answered if use cases
are to provide value as a requirements modeling tool.
To begin developing a set of use cases, list the functions or
activities performed by a specific actor. You can obtain these
from a list of required system functions, through
conversations with stakeholders.
We will develop the use case in practice with an example.
12. Homeowner actor:
•Select camera to view.
•Request thumbnails from all cameras.
•Display camera views in a PC window.
•Control pan and zoom for a specific camera.
•Selectively record camera output.
•Replay camera output.
•Access camera surveillance via the Internet.
Creating a Preliminary Use Case
13. conversations with the stakeholder (who plays
the role of a homeowner)
Use case: Access camera surveillance via the Internet—display camera views (ACS-
DCV)
Actor: homeowner:
If I’m at a remote location, I can use any PC with appropriate browser software to
log on to the Safe Home Products website. I enter my user ID and two levels of
passwords and once I’m validated, I have access to all functionality for my installed
Safe Home system. To access a specific camera view, I select “surveillance” from the
major function buttons displayed. I then select “pick a camera” and the floor plan of
the house is displayed. I then select the camera that I’m interested in. Alternatively,
I can look at thumbnail snapshots from all cameras simultaneously by selecting “all
cameras” as my viewing choice. Once I choose a camera, I select “view” and a one-
frame-per-second view appears in a viewing window that is identified by the
camera ID. If I want to switch cameras, I select “pick a camera” and the original
viewing window disappears and the floor plan of the house is displayed again.
I then select the camera that I’m interested in. A new viewing window appears.
CreatingaPreliminaryUseCase
14. Use case: Access camera surveillance via the Internet—display camera
views (ACS-DCV)
Actor: homeowner
1. The homeowner logs onto the Safe Home Products website.
2. The homeowner enters his or her user ID.
3. The homeowner enters two passwords (each at least eight characters in
length).
4. The system displays all major function buttons.
5. The homeowner selects the “surveillance” from the major function
buttons.
6. The homeowner selects “pick a camera.”
7. The system displays the floor plan of the house.
8. The homeowner selects a camera icon from the floor plan.
9. The homeowner selects the “view” button.
10. The system displays a viewing window that is identified by the camera ID.
11. The system displays video output within the viewing window at one
frame per second.
CreatingaPreliminaryUseCase
15. Refining a Preliminary Use Case
A description of alternative interactions is essential for a complete understanding
of the function that is being described by a use case. Therefore, each step in the
primary scenario is evaluated by asking the following questions:
• Can the actor take some other action at this point?
• Is it possible that the actor will encounter some error condition at this
point? If so, what might it be?
16. For example, consider steps 6 and 7 in the primary scenario
presented earlier:
6. The homeowner selects “pick a camera.”
7. The system displays the floor plan of the house.
Can the actor take some other action at this point? The
answer is “yes.” Referring to the free-flowing narrative, the
actor may choose to view thumbnail snapshots of all
cameras simultaneously. Hence, one secondary scenario might
be “View thumbnail snapshots for all cameras.”
Refining a Preliminary Use Case
17. Writing a Formal Use Case
The informal use cases presented in the previous Section are
sometimes sufficient for requirements modeling. However,
when a use case involves a critical activity or describes a
complex set of steps with a significant number of exceptions, a
more formal approach may be desirable.
18. In many cases, there is no need to create a graphical
representation of a usage scenario.
However, diagrammatic representation can facilitate
understanding, particularly when the scenario is complex.
WritingaFormalUseCas
19. Like any other form of written description, a use case is only as
good as its author(s). If the description is unclear, the use case
can be misleading or ambiguous. A use case focuses on
functional and behavioral requirements.
However, scenario-based modeling is appropriate for a
significant majority of all situations that you will encounter as
a software engineer. If developed properly, the use case can
provide substantial benefit as a modeling tool.
21. If software requirements include the need to create, extend, or
interface with a database or if complex data structures must be
constructed and manipulated, the software team may choose to create
a data model as part of overall requirements modeling.
Data Objects
A data object is a representation of composite information that must
be understood by software. By composite information, I mean
something that has a number of different properties or attributes. For
example dimensions(incorporating height, width, and depth) could be
defined as an object.
DATA MODELING CONCEPTS
22. Data Attributes
Data attributes define the properties of a data object and take on one
of three different characteristics. They can be used to (1) name an
instance of the data object, (2) describe the instance, or (3) make
reference to another instance in another table.
DATAMODELING
CONCEPTS
23. Relationships
Data objects are connected to one another in different ways. Consider
the two data objects, person and car.
•A person owns a car.
•A person is insured to drive a car.
DATAMODELING
CONCEPTS
24. Entity-Relationship Diagrams
The object-relationship pair is the cornerstone of the data
model. These pairs can be represented graphically using the entity-
relationship diagram (ERD).
A set of primary components is identified for the ERD: data
objects, attributes, relationships, and various type indicators. The
primary purpose of the ERD is to represent data objects and their
relationships.
DATAMODELING
CONCEPTS
25. CLASS-BASED MODELING
Class-based modeling represents the objects that the system will
manipulate, the operations (also called methods or services) that will
be applied to the objects to effect the manipulation, relationships.
26. Identifying Analysis Classes
If you look around a room, there is a set of physical objects that can be
easily identified, classified, and defined (in terms of attributes and
operations). But when you look around” the problem space of a
software application, the classes (and objects) may be more difficult to
comprehend.
27. Analysis classes manifest them selves in one of the following ways:
• External entities(e.g., other systems, devices, people) that produce or
consume information to be used by a computer-based system.
• Things(e.g., reports, displays, letters, signals) that are part of the information
domain for the problem.
• Occurrences or events(e.g., a property transfer or the completion of a series
of robot movements) that occur within the context of system operation.
• Roles(e.g., manager, engineer, salesperson) played by people who interact
with the system.
• Organizational units(e.g., division, group, team) that are relevant to an
application.
• Places(e.g., manufacturing floor or loading dock) that establish the context of
the problem and the overall function of the system.
• Structures(e.g., sensors, four-wheeled vehicles, or computers) that define a
class of objects or related classes of objects.
29. Budd [Bud96] suggests a taxonomy of classes that includes producers
(sources) and consumers(sinks) of data, data managers, viewor observer
classes, and helper classes.
Another important categorization, defining entity, boundary, and
controller classes,
30. Coad and Yourdon [Coa91] suggest six
selection characteristics that should be used
as you consider each potential class for
inclusion in the analysis model:
• Retained information.
• Needed services.
• Multiple attributes.
• Common attributes.
• Common operations
• Essential requirements.
31. Specifying Attributes
• Attributes are the set of data objects that fully define
the class within the context of the problem
• Attributes describe a class that has been selected for
inclusion in the requirements model.
Defining Operations
• Operations define the behavior of an object. When you define
operations for an analysis class, focus on problem-oriented behavior
rather than behaviors required for implementation
34. class
The taxonomy of class types Section can be extended by considering
the following categories:
•Entity classes, also called model or business classes, are extracted
directly from the statement of the problem.
•Boundary classes are used to create the interface.
35.
36. Responsibilities.
Basic guidelines for identifying responsibilities (attributes and
operations) have been presented in Sections 6.5.2 and 6.5.3. Wirfs-
Brock and her colleagues [Wir90] suggest five guidelines for allocating
responsibilities to classes:
•System intelligence should be distributed across classes to best
address the needs of the problem.
•Each responsibility should be stated as generally as possible.
37. Collaborations
Classes fulfill their responsibilities in one of two ways:
(1) A class can use its own operations to manipulate its own attributes.
(2) a class can collaborate with other classes.
38. Associations and Dependencies
• An association defines a relationship between classes. Multiplicity
defines how many of one class are related to how many of another
class
• In many instances, two analysis classes are related to one another in
some fashion, much like two data objects may be related to one
another (Section 6.4.3). In UML these relationships are called
associations.
39. Analysis Packages
• A package is used to assemble a collection of related classes.
• An important part of analysis modeling is categorization. That is, various
elements of the analysis model (e.g., use cases, analysis classes) are categorized
in a manner that packages them as a grouping—called an analysis package—that
is given a representative name
