Abstract :
This paper focuses on software requirements documentation and more specifically on the software requirements specification document. It aims to help the requirements engineers to be more efficient in writing this document. Indeed we propose a dynamic document model to represent software requirements specification where most part of it will be automatically fed from a requirements database. Hence authors will focus mainly on the text part of the specification that requires their problem domain knowledge and writing expertise. So a central challenge for this research work is how to make dynamic software requirements specification. A case study related to the software requirements specification of a hotel reservation system will be built based on the new model.
