Requirements Management Interface 1.0 Release Notes

Introducing the Requirements Management Interface

The Requirements Management Interface 1.0 was introduced as a Web-downloadable product after Release 11.1. There are no new features or changes for the Requirements Management Interface for Release 12.

The Requirements Management Interface allows you to associate requirements with Simulink models, Stateflow diagrams, and MATLAB M-files.

There is a standard version of the Requirements Browser and a version that works with the DOORS requirements management system, a Quality Software and Systems, Inc. (QSS) product. For the standard version, the requirements are in Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and HTML documents. For the DOORS version, the requirements are managed by DOORS.

When you use the DOORS version of the Requirements Management Interface for a given model, diagram, or M-file, you can only associate it with DOORS requirements (and not Word, Excel, or HTML requirements documents). Similarly, when you use the standard version of the Requirements Management Interface for a given model, diagram, or M-file, you can only associate Word, Excel, and HTML requirements documents with it (and not DOORS requirements).

Use the Requirements Management Interface to:

• Associate requirements with the following objects:
• Simulink subsystems and blocks
• Stateflow charts, states, and transitions
• MATLAB M-files
• See which objects have requirements associated with them.
• Go from the Requirements Management Interface Navigator to a requirement.
• Go from a requirement in DOORS to a MATLAB object (for DOORS version only).
• Run a MATLAB script that executes a Simulink simulation or M-file from DOORS (for DOORS version only).

For instructions to use the Requirement Management Interface, see the documentation in the Help browser.
