0028/2009 - Problemas na Elicitação de Requisitos: Uma visão de pesquisa/literatura
A primeira fase na engenharia de requisitos é a elicitação de requisitos, na qual as informações sobre as necessidades do cliente são adquiridas, sendo crucial e crítica e podendo comprometer todas as etapas subseqüentes do desenvolvimento. O presente relatório apresenta um levantamento dos problemas que ocorrem durante a elicitação de requisitos citados na literatura da área
Contextual memory in group workspaces
Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, School of Architecture and Planning, Program in Media Arts and Sciences, 2009.Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.Includes bibliographical references (p. 125-129).This thesis presents the design and implementation of MemTable, an interactive touch table that supports co-located group meetings by capturing both digital and physical interactions in its memory. The goal of the project is to demonstrate hardware and software design principles that integrate recording, recalling, and reflection during the life cycle of a project in one tabletop system. MemTable's hardware design prioritizes ergonomics, social interaction, structural integrity, and streamlined implementation. Its software supports heterogeneous input modalities for a variety of contexts: brainstorming, decision making, event planning, and story-boarding. The user interface introduces personal menus, capture elements, and tagging to help identify the context of meeting interactions. It records the history of the implicit and explicit events during meetings. A preliminary evaluation is presented of user feedback on the capture and recall features. A longitudinal design plan outlines a framework for future work that integrates review and reflection functions into a comprehensive system. Additional features are presented for browsing and searching prior meeting data, visualizing long term work patterns, and integrating meeting data with external web services.by Seth E. Hunter.S.M
A Company-led Methodology for the Specification of Product Design Capabilities in Small and Medium Sized Electronics Companies
It is the aim of the research reported in this thesis to improve the product design
effectiveness of small and medium sized electronics companies in the United Kingdom. It
does so by presenting a methodology for use by such firms which will enable them to
specify product design capabilities which are resilient to changes in their respective
business environments. The research has not, however, concerned itself with the details of
particular electronics component technologies or with the advantages of various CAD or
CAE products, although these are both important aspects of any design capability. Nor is it
concerned with the implementation of the product design capability. The methodology,
which represents a significant improvement on current practice, is a structured,
company-driven approach which draws extensively upon the lessons of international
design best practice. It uses well-proven tools and techniques to guide firms through the
entire process of creating such capabilities - from the development of an appropriate
Mission Statement to the identification of cost effective and appropriate design system
solutions which can readily be translated into action plans for improvement. The work
emphasises the importance of adopting a holistic, systems approach which acknowledges
the interrelationship between the management of the design process, as well as its
operational and supporting activities.
The research has been structured around the experiences of companies which have
implemented electronics design systems and which "own" the problem in question. Hence,
a research strategy was adopted which was based upon a case study approach and upon the
development of close collaborative links with two leading design automation tool vendor
companies. Case study interviews were undertaken in 18 U.K. and European electronics
companies and in 11 U.S., Japanese and Korean electronics firms. The work proceeded in
two distinct phases. Firstly, the author participated with other researchers to jointly develop
a functional specification of an electronics designers' toolset to support the process of
product design in an integrated manufacturing environment. The first phase provided the
context for Phase 2, the development of the AGILITY methodology for specifying product
design capabilities which represents the author's individual contribution.
The contribution to knowledge made by the research lies in the creation of a process
methodology which, for the first time, will help U.K. electronics companies to define for
themselves product design capabilities which are robust and which support their wider
business objectives. No such methodology is currently available in a form which is both
accessible and affordable to smaller firms. Furthermore, the author has uncovered no
evidence of the existence of such a methodology even for use by large electronics firms.
Validation of the methodology is subject to an ongoing process of feedback.Racal Redac Lt
Third International Symposium on Space Mission Operations and Ground Data Systems, part 1
Under the theme of 'Opportunities in Ground Data Systems for High Efficiency Operations of Space Missions,' the SpaceOps '94 symposium included presentations of more than 150 technical papers spanning five topic areas: Mission Management, Operations, Data Management, System Development, and Systems Engineering. The papers focus on improvements in the efficiency, effectiveness, productivity, and quality of data acquisition, ground systems, and mission operations. New technology, techniques, methods, and human systems are discussed. Accomplishments are also reported in the application of information systems to improve data retrieval, reporting, and archiving; the management of human factors; the use of telescience and teleoperations; and the design and implementation of logistics support for mission operations
Exploratory research into supply chain voids within Welsh priority business sectors
The paper reports the findings resulting from the initial stages of an exploratory investigation into Supply Chain Voids (SCV) in Wales. The research forms the foundations of a PhD thesis which is framed within the sectors designated as important by the Welsh Assembly Government (WAG) and indicates local supplier capability voids within their supply chains. This paper covers the stages of initial
data gathering, analysis and results identified between June 2006 and April 2007, whilst addressing the first of four research questions. Finally, the approach to address future research is identified in order to explain how the PhD is to progress
