Research And Implementation Of Software Requirements Management Tools

Software requirement management and its tool are the hot point in the software engineering. The software requirement management tool is used in the software development companies at large. These tools can automatically manage and trace requirement so then improve the work efficiency. We analyse the tools and find some problems: The tools can't support the Chinese users well. The tools take the C/S to structure the tools so they can't support the hetero system well. No standard management process is embedded in the tools which is very essential to the media and small organization. Most of importance is that it supports the requirement change management badly.In this article, we analyse current software requirement management. According to the ISO9000 and CMM, we forward the standard software requirement management process. Based on the RDEM and REPEAT lifecycle model, we bring forward the Requirement Lifecycle with buffer-RLMB. This model supports good requirement change and baseline management. In the state transition of the lifecycle, we suggest the push way to carry out the management process.According to the above analysis, we construct a software requirement management tool-RM.net. In the article we bring forward the design and realization of RM.net. This tool is constructed in the Browser/Server style. With the tool, user can acquire the business requirement, user requirement, function requirement and date entity. Through constructing the relationship between the requirements user can get a good requirement trace link. Some requirement management principles are embedded in the system which will facilitate the requirement management in the media or small organization, As for the requirement change management, it realizes the RLMB lifecycle management so that the change process is under control. In the RM.net, the requirement management tasks are managed and traced in the push way.
