(1) A review conducted to verify that the detailed design of one or more configuration items satisfy specified requirements; to establish the compatibility among the configuration items and other items of equipment, facilities, software, and personnel; to assess risk areas for each configuration item; and, as applicable, to assess the results of producibility analyses, review preliminary hardware product specifications, evaluate preliminary test planning, and evaluate the adequacy of preliminary operation and support documents.~(2) A review as in (1) of any hardware or software component.
Industry:Computer; Software
(1) A review of the requirements specified for one or more software configuration items to evaluate their responsiveness to and interpretation of the system requirements and to determine whether they form a satisfactory basis for proceeding into preliminary design of the configuration items. Note: This review is called software specification review by the U.S. Department of Defense.~(2) A review as in (1) for any software component.
Industry:Computer; Software
(1) A separately testable element specified in the design of a computer software component.~(2) A logically separable part of a computer program.~(3) A software component that is not subdivided into other components.~(4) See: test unit. Note: The terms "module," "component," and "unit" are often used interchangeably or defined to be sub-elements of one another in different ways depending upon the context.
