Systems Engineering

FAS

FAS, Functional Architecture for Systems, is a methodology that is complementary to SYSMOD and uses a use-case driven approach to specify systems in terms of the functions that must be offered. This is very useful when developing systems that must run in widely different hardware and software environments. FAS grew out of work by Jesko Lamm at Bernofon AG and Tim Weilkiens.

SYSMOD

SYSMOD,  the "SYStem MODeling framework",  is a methodology that has its origins in the definition work for SysML and was defined by INCOSE (International Council on Systems Engineering), and in particullar by Tim Weilkiens, who has published several books on the subject.

Both SYSMOD and FAS (see above) are under continuous development and refinement, and have been used successfully in various projects.

Requirements Engineering

Basic Requirements Engineering

A good starting point is provided by a publication that collects the knowledge of many requirements engineering experts such as Prof. Klaus Pohl, Prof. Martin Glinz, Chris Rupp et. al. into one self-study book for IREB qualification (fundamental level):

"Requirements Engineering Fundamentals", 2nd ed., 2015 - Klaus Pohl, Chris Rupp - Rock Nook Inc.
