Abstract:
Design defects due to inadequate requirements present a major problem in numerous industries. Inadequate requirements often result from a lack of consideration to extreme conditions. In ddition, lack of an interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approach may be a major factor leading to inadequate requirements related to extreme conditions. Inadequate requirements have been documented in the software industry. However, impact of extreme conditions and inadequacy of requirements has not been explored in other disciplines. The purpose of the present paper is to present the need for the consideration of extreme conditions and the need for avoiding inadequate requirements with examples from different disciplines including medical devices and the design of decision support systems.
