Abstract

Non-Functional Requirements (NFR) have been for too long overlooked during the development of software systems, leading in numerous cases to failure, an over budget or even cancellation of projects. In this paper, we propose a solution to integrate the modelling of NFRs into the UML diagrams. Our framework is inspired by several proposals in this critical area, but it is the first time that a unified process, allowing possible integration of NFRs in necessary UML diagrams, is proposed.
