    1.0 Introduction
    This section provides an overview of the entire requirement document. This document describes all data,
    functional and behavioral requirements for software.
    1.1 Goals and objectives
    Overall goals and software objectives are described.
    1.2 Statement of scope
    A description of the software is presented. Major inputs, processing functionality and outputs are
    described without regard to implementation detail.
    1.3 Software context
    The software is placed in a business or product line context. Strategic issues relevant to context are
    discussed. The intent is for the reader to understand the 'big picture'.
    1.4 Major constraints
    Any business or product line constraints that will impact the manner in which the software is to be
    specified, designed, implemented or tested are noted here.
