Coverage of Design for Service Principles in Software Engineering

Design for Service (DFS) is a concept that aims to ease maintenance and service required during the entire life cycle of products. In this paper, we explore the implications of Design for Service principles and requirement for software engineering. First, we introduce the DFS principles derived from the literature and discuss their coverage in existing software engineering approaches and techniques. Afterwards, we discuss the compiled DFS requirements and present their counterparts in the software engineering area. Finally, a conclusion of the findings is provided.
