A Requirements Model for Employees Training Management System: Applying WAE-UML

Abstract

The main purpose of software requirements is to describe the functionality of the software. The requirements often serve as a basis for contracts as well as for communication between customers and developers. Prior researches also have shown that requirements’ errors have impact on software development and they are more expensive to fix during later stages than early stages in software development. Hence, the requirements model is normally developed during the analysis phase. The model presents a complete view of the systems’ requirement prior to the development of the actual system. In this paper researcher propose to create a requirements model for employee training management system (ETMS). The requirements model is validated through prototype. Since the proposed prototype is a Web application which is more complex compared to traditional client/server application, the UML extends named Web Application Extensions (WAE) is used to provide Web specific constructs for modeling the web information. This proposed requirements model provides a guideline for other employee training management system developers.
