This paper discusses a vision, motivation, and objectives for a new engineering technology based on the Rosetta System Level Design Language (SLDL) that we call 驴requirements modeling驴. Requirements modeling is what systems engineers and systems analysts do with Rosetta SLDL. Rosetta SLDL is information technology that supports the specification of multi-technology, multi-faceted, multi-discipline systems. Until the Rosetta SLDL emerged, no good way existed to help the design team 驴get its arms around驴 all of the requirements for a complex system. Requirements related issues are the most common source of systems engineering problems and they impact all aspects of product development. Requirements models help design teams stay 驴on the same page驴 with each other. Requirements modeling reduce cycle time, reduce costs, and reduce the probability of overruns, and helps with support and sustainment of the product. Requirements models will be the input to many new and enhanced design automation tools and processes. The benefits of requirements modeling technology are wide reaching, because system requirements touch everything and everyone associated with a product.
