 |
| Not all requirements have equal significance in the architecture.&nbsp;Some play an important role in determining the
 |
| architecture of the system, but others do not.
 |
| </p>
 |
| <p>
 |
| Deciding whether a specific requirement is architecturally significant is often a matter of judgment. Typically, these
 |
| are requirements that are technically challenging, technically constraining, or central to the system's purpose.
 |
| </p>
 |
| <p>
 |
| These are good examples of Architecturally Significant Requirements:
 |
| </p>
 |
| <ul>
 |
| <li>
 |
| The system must record every modification to customer records for audit purposes.
 |
| </li>
 |
| <li>
 |
| The system must respond within 5 seconds.
 |
| </li>
 |
| <li>
 |
| The system must&nbsp;deploy on Microsoft Windows XP and Linux.
 |
| </li>
 |
| <li>
 |
| The system must encrypt all network traffic.
 |
| </li>
 |
| <li>
 |
| The ATM system must dispense cash on&nbsp;demand&nbsp;to validated account holders with sufficient cleared funds.
 |
| </li>
 |
| </ul><br /></mainDescription> |
