Abstract

The Multimedia Requirements Method for Easy Risk Mitigation (MURMER) is proposed. This method represents requirements for multimedia document types containing audio, video, image or textual data. MURMER aims to increase the overall transparency and reliability of representations as well as provide a straightforward and clear understanding of the whole requirement pane of the final product. It also aims to decrease risk levels associated to the requirements phase and improves overall completeness. The feasibility of the proposed method is shown in a Composting 101 tutorial example created in Macromedia Flash and corresponding MS Powerpoint documents. MURMER investigation is compared to other UML-driven schemes. Its efficiency is based on simplicity and completeness. It is also effective as a risk mitigator.
