“…Pattern based methods appear to be suitable for naval platform NFRs as they provide a means of replicating existing naval platform NFR knowledge. NFR Patterns also provide "...a better solution for managing the complexity of the NFR elicitation process" (Ullah et al, 2011). Further suitability of pattern based methods of NFR elicitation and traceability, such as using a pattern of predetermined NFRs, is suggested by Gabb and Henderson with (Gabb and Henderson, 1995: p. 13): "All NFRs need to be considered and specified.…”

Off‐the‐Shelf (OTS) strategies have become prevalent in the acquisition of naval platforms because the strategy is perceived as a means of reducing the acquisition cost and schedule risk. This paper covers a method to conduct an evaluation of shortlisted OTS naval platform design options that utilises Model‐Based Systems Engineering (MBSE). MBSE is used as a means of developing and managing the traceability of evaluation criteria, managing the evaluation itself and facilitating reuse of the design patterns present both in naval platforms and acquisition processes. The paper concludes with a description of a pilot test of the method for an Offshore Patrol Vessel, which found it to be useful to manage the evaluation criteria traceability, maintain design data and identify weak spots in OTS design options.

“…If Functional Requirements sketch out the functionality that the system has to be performed, Non-Functional Requirements (also called Extra-Functional Requirement) compel the restrictions on this functionality (such as performance, security, reliability, etc.) [13]. The notion of NFR is flawed, but when analyzing the definitions proposed in literature, we can conclude that Non functional Requirement is a constraint, property, and characteristic that describes not what the software will do, but how the software will do it.…”

Software Product Line and Component-Based Software Engineering are two expanding paradigms for developing critical and complex systems. Therefore, these two paradigms seem have complementary strengths. So, significant benefits can be gained from their integration. Despite the fact that Non-Functional Requirements (such as security, performance and reliability) are critical to software systems, and they must be taken into account at early stage of software development life cycle and should be explicitly specified as well as functional requirements; these NFR are overlooked in Software Product line and Component-Based Software Development Processes. So, our main objective is to discuss some recent approaches in the field and to propose a new extension to Software Product Line processes that supports Component Based Approaches, and integrates Non-Functional Requirement in domain requirements stage.

Software requirements elicitation is an important and essential pre-requisite to the subsequent phases in software development lifecycle. There is an increasing focus on how industry performs elicitation as this has a direct influence on the overall project success. It is important to understand broader elicitation issues and challenges, and address them on a large-scale, especially on geographically distributed software development. There are studies focusing on elicitation, but they are relatively small. There is no substantial research related to providing a comprehensive view of elicitation issues along with its causes and effects. This paper attempts to provide a summary of the systematic literature review (SLR) findings from 81 papers. The findings are based on causes of poor elicitation, elicitation issues and challenges, consequences of poor elicitation, advisable practices and classification of elicitation issues. The authors have leveraged cause-and-effect diagrams to draw conclusions on SLR.
