Dependence between functional and nonfunctional requirements.

Functional Requirements (FR)Non-Functional Requirements Non-Functional Requirements for software ISO/IEC 9126-1

FR1-Qualitative and quantitative design recommendations on a more comprehensive level or quantitative design recommendationsApplicability, Inferability, and UniversalityFunctionality
FR2-Considerations of interactive products with multimodal interaction possibilities; Consideration of physical user interfaces, supporting the selection and configuration of appropriate mobile interaction devicesInferability and AnalysabilityFunctionality, Maintainability
FR3-Good presentation and visualisation of design recommendations as well as visualisation and communication of user scenariosApplicability and AnalysabilityReliability, Maintainability
FR4-Need for a comprehensive collection of significant design patterns for the description of physical user interfaces (mobile interaction devices), respecting the various facets and propertiesReusability and ExtensibilityUsability, Maintainability
FR5-Integration and consideration of context information in respect to the work context in intelligent production environmentsAdaptabilityPortability
FR6-Focus upon industrial user interfaces and a broad audience of users in mobile working situationsApplicabilityReliability, Usability
