Functionality (product)
In materials science, functionality (or range of functions ) is the set of functions with defined properties that are present in a product .
General
These functions meet the defined requirements. In product design , functionality is one of the most important aspects. In the software requirement , functionality - in addition to changeability / maintainability , usability , efficiency , transferability and reliability - is an essential quality feature .
aims
Sub-goals of the functionality are according to ISO / IEC 9126 (successor ISO 25000):
- Appropriateness: Suitability of functions for specified tasks, for example task-oriented composition of functions from sub-functions.
- Security : Ability to prevent unauthorized access, both accidental and deliberate, to programs and data.
- Interoperability : Ability to interact with given systems.
- Conformity : Ability of the software product to comply with standards, conventions or legal provisions and similar regulations with regard to functionality.
- Compliance: Features of software that cause the software to comply with application-specific standards or agreements or legal provisions and similar regulations.
- Correctness : Delivering the correct or agreed results or effects, for example the required accuracy of calculated values.
