1. Consider functional and nonfunctional requirements as explained in page 1. (a) 

1. Consider functional and nonfunctional requirements as explained in page 1. (a) Think about one product you want to answer in this question (it can be a software from Microsoft as illustrated before, it can be a car, a computer, but it can be any other product coming to your mind). Explain briefly why you want to pick this product. (b) Define three functional requirements of this product. Define or explain each requirement in at least two lines. (c) Now find / identify three nonfunctional requirements as shown in Figure 1, that you want to explain. You can also have / make your own nonfunctional requirements not listed in Figure 1; just make sure you can justify these requirement. (d) General definitions: Define or explain what these three requirements mean in general (just like a glossary section or a dictionary). For example, what does it mean by security requirements, with the definition common for all different products. You also know that safety requirements are different from security requirements even though the terms sound very similar. Note that the detailed security requirements of different products can be different (as a car uses an alarm for security, while a computer uses a fingerprint for security (and MS Word uses some other way for security, not alarm, neither fingerprint). However security means a way to guard the product, which is different from safety, a way to protect the user's life for example. Your answer for (d) will be the same whether the product is car or computer or anything else such as "a way to guard the product" but you may use different words". (e) Specific Definitions: Now explain the three requirements (picked in part (c)) specific to the product you picked in part (a). Notice a computer's security requirements will be different from a car's security (and different from MS Word's security requirements) in this part (e) (as you saw that a computer could use fingerprint while a car uses an alarm), but the general definition of security requirements for car, computer, and MS Word are all the same for part (d). (f) How would you design the specific requirements you explained in part (e)? For example, our labs can be secured by door access, but how is door access designed (or implemented)? It can be designed using lock and keys, using Bronco card, using fingerprint etc.
