Date: Friday the December 6th, 2013 – 10:30-17:30
Location: Salon Nathan, Maison Internationale, Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris
Speaker: Mr. Paul Davies, Systems Design Engineer, Network Rail, UK. Formerly Head of Systems Engineering Research, Thales UK - Great Britain
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
The aim of the tutorial is for each delegate to leave knowing that they need never (well, hardly ever) sit through an ineffective 3-day requirements review again. Moreover, they should be armed with a set of techniques to ensure it for themselves.
