Description
Summary:This Master Thesis has investigated how one should define requirements for a desired product and evaluate the possible solutions, in order to deliver sufficient information to the organization to use as basis. The company?s problem is that there is no communication link to use, between the delivered control systems and the company, in order to support it. The company desires a new product that could be implemented in the control systems worldwide for communication with the control system and for maintenance reasons. The Thesis has therefore started by eliciting requirements for the desired product in order to specify a Requirements Specification. The Requirements Specification has been used to form an evaluation process, and the tailored evaluation process has in turn lead to findings for the possible solutions. The intention with this report is to use this document as a sufficient reference to determine if resources should be committed to constructing or purchasing the product and using it within their organizational context.
