CHAPTER 8 
Software Requirements Analysis Practice
As the software architecture evolves and matures, the specification and docu-
mentation trees should be updated to identify the requirements specifications, 
design documents, engineering drawings, and training and user manuals. 
Table 8.2
 
provides a list of the typical software requirements documentation items that com-
prise the software product requirements baseline.
