Abstract

Natural language safety requirements in industrial standards pose risks for ambiguities which need to be resolved by the system manufacturer in concertation with the certificate authority. This is especially challenging for small and medium-sized enterprises (SME). In this paper we report on our experiences with applying traditional requirements engineering techniques, formal methods, and visual narratives in an exploratory case-study in an SME.
