Abstract

The paper presents a SuSoftPro tool for requirement engineers to analyse the requirements’ impacts on system sustainability. To perform the analysis of system sustainability, the tool provides quantitative questionnaires for rating highlevel requirements within sustainability dimensions via a Fuzzy Rating Scale method. Stakeholders’ responses are analysed by applying Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution. The tool presents sustainability as a five-star rating label, a visualisation of the degree for sustainability dimensions, and a bar graph that illustrates the sustainability level.
