Priorisierung von Anforderungen für die Entwicklung mechatronischer Systeme
In the development of mechatronic systems, risks are caused by changing requirements. In this paper, an approach towards the assessment of such kind of risks is presented. Starting with the requirements list, interactions between requirements are structured in the Requirements Structure Matrix (RSM) semi-automatically. In parallel, requirements are categorized according to their source (“influence area”) and prioritized. This priorization is based on the risk of change. It is characterised by the criteria “dynamics”, “uncertainty of knowledge base” and “relevance for product development”. The approach is validated by two approaches: structured interviews with project managers and developers as well as a case study focusing on a pedelec. By application of the approach, cross-disciplinary relations of requirements can be considered in order to reduce iterations in the development of mechatronic systems such as the pedelec.
