1. Introduction 

This new set of software requirements is a model based on the following documents:

  • The NASA-STD-8719.29 "NASA Technical Requirements for Human-Rating" is the bases basis for this new section of requirements.
  • There is a companion document "Additional NASA software technical requirements for human.docx" which breaks out the software related requirements. 

The model also contains additional support pages necessary to demonstrate the full scope of the new requirements.  

1.1 Model Pages

The pages in the current model include:

2. New Pages

2.1 New "C. Software Project Requirements" page

This new page has an additional section below the Chapter 5 table. This new table contains the Software Human Rated Requirements identified in the "Additional NASA software technical requirements for human.docx" document. 

New C. Project Software Requirements. It identifies all 14 of the new software requirements with 5 of them linked to new SWE pages. 

Panel Title has green background.  

2.2 New Topic "7.24 - Human Rated Software Requirements" 

This Topic is a paraphrasing of the document "Additional NASA software technical requirements for human.docx". All of the content from this document is in this topic except for the Italicized text which is embedded in the appropriate new SWE.

7.24 - Human Rated Software Requirements. This new topic will be added to the existing D. Topics page when it is released. 

This new topic will reference the references NASA-STD-8719.29 which is SWEREF-458. This topic: 

  • Explain why certain Identifies requirements that are are Software RequirementsHuman Rated Requirements Explain
  • Explains why certain requirements are NOT Software Requirements (Rational column in the table)
  • Offers Offer any other amplifications or clarifications about the Human Rated Requirements

In the new topic, ALL of the paragraphs from the standard, that are phrased like a requirement (in the form of a SHALL statement), are broken out in the Requirements tab. Only the ones identified as Software Human Rated are given SWE numbers.  Some have SWE pages built out (5 so far for this demo). 

 2.3 Full text of NASA-STD-8719.29

The full text of this document has been reproduced in NASA-STD-8719.29. As quotations are derived from it they will be child pages under the main page,It will contain links to new SWEs in the 8xx series with the requirement statement.

3. Requirements

The NASA-STD-8719.29 "NASA Technical Requirements for Human-Rating" is the bases basis for this new section of requirements.

There is a companion document "Additional NASA software technical requirements for human.docx" which breaks out the software related requirementsidentifies the Software Human Related Requirements. 

3.1 Project Software Requirements

A home will need to be found for the new requitements and topics.  That home is modeled in the new C. Project Software Requirements page.  a new section is added below the third column requirements from Chapter 5 of NPR7150.2.Requirements pages are modeled after the current SWE pages and only a few are modeled currently have contents. In total there are 18 14 identified as Software Human Rated. 

3.2 HR Series

The numbers for this series are built from the paragraph numbers in the STD. By keeping it as a 7 character string. all of the other macros that depend on this format for requirements can be used without the need for changes. This includes the SWEREF and reference related macros. The requirement number is the paragraph number without the decimal points and without the leading "4" ( section number). . For modeling purposes the SWE numbers will be in the 800 series so that references and other features of the SWEHB will work properly. We will need to be custodians of the numbering because there is not a numbering scheme in the standard NASA-STD-8719.29 that will work for this project.

These requirements were derived from the document "Additional NASA software technical requirements for human.docx". Additional requirements exist on the standard and may be factored in later. SWE Titles in bold are modeled for review due to their sizewere derived from paraphrasing the requirement. Many of the components of a SWE are found in these requirements in the document. example SWEs. 

The table below contains links to new SWEs in the 8xx series along with the requirement statement.
