Summary of requirement pre-interview, by Reviewer:

Business Goal: Provide support to current caBIG services for them to be able to exchange data with services who consume/produce ISO21090 data type containing messages/XML documents(serialized objects),  
Actor: Information Specialist
<ac:structured-macro ac:name="unmigrated-wiki-markup" ac:schema-version="1" ac:macro-id="2a85c5e8-0148-4824-ac31-9a777e2f4bba"><ac:plain-text-body><![CDATA[ISO21090 data types will start to be used by several services. Existing services have been using programming language specific data types (e.g . Java). To be able to exchange data with services who consume/produce ISO21090 data type containing messages/XML documents(serialized objects), existing projects would either be redeveloped to use/implement ISO21090 data type libraries for their programming language of choice [VCDE:Alternative Solution] OR are provided a mapping tool (and/or transformation service) that will  transform native content with language specific data types to messages/XML documents containing ISO21090 data types. Possibly the mapping tool can produce a document as an input to a transformation service (describing how mapping should be done) or generate the code for service itself. 
]]></ac:plain-text-body></ac:structured-macro>
The libraries in first solution or mapping tool in the second solution are  going to be used by Information Specialists (e.g. software developers).

Requirement Type (required)

Analyst's assessement of the most appropriate category/type of requirement (no need to ask interviewee):

• Functional: Fundamental or essential to the product - describes what the product has to do or what processing is needed
  
• Nonfunctional: properties the functions must have such as performance, usability, training or documentation
  
  • Project constraint: schedule or budget constraints
    
  • Design constraint: impose restrictions on how the product must be designed, such as conformant to ISO 11179, utilizes 21090 or is able to work on a particular type of device
    
  • Project driver: business-related forces such as descriptions of stakeholders or purpose of the product/project
    
  • Project issue: conditions that will contribute to the success or failure of the project
