 The requirements define the expected and actual performance of the product according to both the market and the development team. Expect the requirements to //evolve// as new information is obtained during the product development process. Each stage report submitted by the team must included **updated requirements**. While there are variety of ways for expressing and tracking requirements used by industry, for Capstone the requirements are captured in system and subsystem requirements matrices or the Software Requirements Specification (SRS).  The requirements define the expected and actual performance of the product according to both the market and the development team.

   * Requirements Matrix: The most succinct summary of the product performance is the requirements matrix. In the opportunity development stage, there is only a single requirements matrix. In later stages, additional requirements matrices for subsystems and components can be created.  The complete set of requirements matrices should be included in the requirements section.  See the Requirements Matrix section of the Product Development Reference for more information on the requirements matrix. A template for the requirements matrix is also available on Learning Suite.  A template file and examples are available on Box. The requirements matrices may be hard to read if printed on standard letter-size paper.  It may be desirable to print the performance matrices on B-size (11 by 17 inch) paper.   * Requirements Matrix: The most succinct summary of the product performance is the requirements matrix.

   * Performance Graphs: In many cases, the measured or predicted performance is best represented by a graph rather than by a single number.  In such cases, relevant graphs should be part of the requirements artifacts.  Methods used to obtain the graphs should be part of the test artifacts, and should be cross-referenced here.   * Performance Graphs: In many cases, the measured or predicted performance is best represented by a graph rather than by a single number.  In such cases, relevant graphs should be part of the requirements artifacts.  Methods used to obtain the graphs should be part of the test artifacts, and should be cross-referenced here.
