What is Requirements Engineering?No short answer! But the first principle is a set of activities to understand what client wants before we build a new solution system for the client.

Good outcome vs Bad outcome

Bad Outcome examples:
Beagle 2 was declared lost on February 6, 2004-the craft may have hit the ground too hard(as the atmosphere was thinner than usual because of dust storms in that region of Mars)
14, 2003, Ontario and much of the northeasternU.S. were hit by the largest blackout in North America's history. Electricity was cut to 50 million people.

Bad Outcome examples:
The Black Friday report (the Business Internet Group San Francisco BIG-SF) stated consumers spent $196 million online shopping. This report also stated that 72.5% of the websites suffered some kind of failure.
How often does bridge break?
Software engineering vs others engineering (e.g. civil engineering)Relatively speaking, software failure rate seems higher than the other. Why?

Does requirements engineering really matter?
- Problem size- Simple task- Cost of fixing etc
PS – some damage cannot be fixed and compensated!
