Abstract

Context and motivation: Software Requirements Specification (SRS) is an important document in software development process. In order to produce high quality software and reduce development cost, SRS should be correctly written. Several studies have been done in how to measure the quality of SRS and most of them gave values for every characteristic a numerical value from 0 to 1. Question/Problem: It is needed to help a user by giving a better point of view of quality of SRS and show to the user which parts of SRS need to be improved. Principle ideas/result: The purpose of this research is to visualize the quality of SRS using a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) metaphor. In this research, Mountain Fuji is selected as a metaphor since it is a prominent landscape for Japanese people. Among several SRS characteristics, this research visualizes three main important characteristics; unambiguity, completeness, and consistency. Contribution: This visualization is expected to give an improved point of view of the SRS quality to the user so they can understand and revise the document faster and more accurate. Moreover, the methodology of this research could be a base model of other prominent metaphor in different culture or country.
