Jeffrey Carlin  has identified a number of requirements that are referenced in the DMSR but that do not exist in the DMSR (or anywhere). This is reported in DM-11029 - Getting issue details... STATUS

The DM-SST will review these;  if they are relevant, we will propose via LCR to  to  include them in the DMSR, if not, the dangling references to them should just be removed.  

Criteria for evaluation

  • Verifiability - can the requirement be verified by DM?
  • Feasibility - is it feasible to verify a requirement
  • Useful  - is it useful to add these at this late stage?


Should we make the DMSR a stand alone document?

DMS-REQ-0005: Produce Data Releases

All Level 2 Data Products shall be made public as part of periodic coherent Data Releases
  • Accept and re-include as is
  • Delete dangling reference
  • Include with modification

Requirements deriving from this:

  • DMS-REQ-0006: Timely Publication of Level 2 Data Releases (removed in LCR-962)

  • LCR: 962: We are proposing to remove DMS-REQ-0006 on the basis that "Timely publication of Level 2 Data Releases" is unverifiable by DM and is a process issue relating to operations planning. The intent of the requirement was to make the release process transparent and to remove any suggestion that LSST scientists are getting early access to data for their own publications. To aid in this we are proposing a new requirement to allow query auditing (DMS-REQ-0345).

Which OSS requirement was this meant to shadow?

DMS-REQ-0005 looks to derive from OSS-REQ-0134:

  1. Gregory Dubois-Felsmann  Thinks that most of these were supposed to be in the DMSR but there was not enough time to include them before the FDR. 

  2. To expand on that, because more of the story came back to me in the course of meeting with Leanne Guy just now:

    1. The "dangling requirements" appear in the DMSR, in general, as entries in the "Derived from Requirements" subsection under each requirement.  This subsection is autogenerated as part of the MagicDraw docgen procedure.  The ability to generate this subsection was added to the docgen template after the migration from Enterprise Architect to MagicDraw as the systems engineering database.  The first version of LSE-61 that exposes this information is from February 2017, Docushare version 14 (https://docushare.lsst.org/docushare/dsweb/Get/Version-42765/LSE-61-20170216-with-history.docx) - though with a cruder template than the current version.  This means that at earlier times the document reviews that occurred, e.g., for FDR, did not expose this information.  This answers the "how is it that this wasn't noticed before" question.
    2. A full OSS-to-DMSR flowdown was not presented at FDR (this is work that was triaged at that time in the light of limited systems engineering resources)
    3. The reason the relationships exist in the model at all at this time derives from prior practice in the systems engineering group in which, when a requirement was "deleted" it was not actually deleted from the model, but moved aside into a folder that was excluded from document generation.  Because the "deleted" requirement was not actually deleted, the relationships between the "deleted" requirement and other requirements were also not deleted from the model, and are still available to the docgen even though the target requirements are not themselves included in the docgen.  (E.g., DMS-REQ-0009 is part of the DMSR, while DMS-REQ-0007, to which it refers, is in the "excluded from docgen" folder.  While DMS-REQ-0007 itself, properly, does not appear in the docgen, the template fails to hide the DMS-REQ-0009-to-DMS-REQ-0007 relationship.
    4. The set of requirements that were excluded from the docgen, but appear above because they have relationships with other requirements that are still in the DMSR, were "deleted" (moved aside) for a variety of reasons - it's definitely not a single story.  I've identified two specific reasons that account for quite a few of the cases.
      1. Some of the very high-level deleted requirements, like DMS-REQ-0003, were, in the run-up to the FDR, recognized as being very nearly copies of associated OSS requirements.  The SE team decided that these would be best represented using the SysML <copy> relationship, but that was not available in a useful way in EA at the time, so as an interim decision it was decided not to duplicate them "by hand" in the DMSR at all (thereby making the DMSR not a truly standalone document, but only usable together with the OSS).  This was not seen as a permanent decision, but we never actually went back to fix this up.  In those cases where quasi-OSS-duplicates, like DMS-REQ-0003, had been present in the DMSR, we decided to remove them and only put them back, eventually, in the "correct" way using the <copy> relationship.  This is now possible in MagicDraw.  It would be extremely useful to complete this work now so that the DMSR can finally be a truly standalone document; that will greatly facilitate verification.
      2. Some of the deleted requirements, like DMS-REQ-0040 and DMS-REQ-0041, arose from an abandoned attempt to provide science-oriented flowdowns for some requirements like "provide photo-z's" which were otherwise difficult to derive from higher-level requirements.  The SE group eventually decided that this approach produced more problems than it solved, especially with verification, and these requirements should not be restored to the document.  The flowdown links to these deleted requirements should be removed, and it is acceptable to completely remove the offending requirements from the model.  It may or may not be worth looking at providing alternate flowdown for, e.g., the provision of photo-z's.
      3. Requirements DMS-REQ-0055 through DMS-REQ-0058 arose from an abandoned attempt to connect detailed requirements for the ISR code to expected imperfections in the Camera data.  While the reason this was abandoned is difficult to reconstruct - I suspect we just ran out of time - in this case the question should go to the Science Pipelines groups: is it useful to have requirements in this area, and would it be possible to write them in a verifiable way?

    I volunteered to look at the "4a" class of requirements and see which OSS requirements could be used in the DMSR via <copy> to replace them.

    Leanne Guy and I will continue looking at this next week.

  3. Leanne Guy I read through the above and Gregory Dubois-Felsmann 's explanation and plan make sense to me.

    I understand that the plan is:

    4a - Copy from OSS: Gregory Dubois-Felsmann will provide recommendations and ask Systems Engineering to implement.

    4b - Detritrus: Gregory Dubois-Felsmann will tell System Engineering to drop these

    4c - ISR+Camera: Michael Wood-Vasey and Robert Luptoncan take responsibility for these, but with a low priority.  These requirements will be hard to write down in useful way.

  4. This has become relevant to  RFC-709 - Getting issue details... STATUS  this week.  Picking up the ball again.

  5. I'm proposing on  RFC-709 - Getting issue details... STATUS  that modified versions of DMS-REQ-0003 and DMS-REQ-0066 be restored to the DMSR to support a more logical document flow and improve the flowdown of the LSR-REQ-0049 requirement for on-demand re-creation of un-archived data products.

  6. Gregory Dubois-Felsmann I have completed a concrete proposal based on the comments above. Could you review please. 


  7. Jim Bosch Could you review proposal for DMS-REQ-0104: Produce Co-Added Exposures and comment please

    1. The proposed action for DMS-REQ-0104 sounds good to me; I like that it helps a bit with the interpretation of the word "user" in its spec, which otherwise makes it sound like science users are telling us the criteria that sets what goes into our coadds; with those other existing requirements as dependencies, I'm comfortable with that "user" referring to whoever is configuring the pipeline for one of those coadd types (i.e. actually a DM developer).

      That said, I am a bit confused by the reference in the comment in the table to Gregory Dubois-Felsmann  (4b) bullet, as that seems to recommend the opposite (dropping the requirement) of the action being proposed for this one.
