SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS SPECIFICATION

1. Introduction

1.1 Purpose

The purpose of this software requirements specification (SRS) is to establish the major requirements necessary to develop the Software Systems Engineering (SWSE) 625 Team Project for the MJY Team. The overall objective of the Team Project is to establish a web site that can be used as a resource for information concerning Software Project Management, with emphasis in the area of Risk Management. The project requirements will define, in general terms, the setup of the web site, topics for available information concerning the Software Project Management topic of Risk Management, and user activities (if any).

1.2 Scope

This web site is being developed for SWSE 625, taught by Professor Richard Bechtold, and is intended to be used by individuals with web access who are interested in obtaining constructive insights into Software Project Management, specifically in the area of Risk Management.

2. General Description

This web site is for users who are interested in accessing current research, publications, tools, and related items in the area of Software Project Management, specifically concentrating on Risk Management. It will accomplish this by posting current academic articles related to Risk Management, listing a bibliography of other relevant publications, providing links to related web sites, and providing a "lessons learned" page. This site is also intended to allow an individual the opportunity to interact in with other users with similar interests.

3. Specific Requirements
