What is the classification of 'technical constraints' in system requirements?

  1. Functional requirement

  2. Nonfunctional requirement

  3. Operational requirement

  4. User requirement

The correct answer is: Nonfunctional requirement

In system requirements, 'technical constraints' are classified as nonfunctional requirements. Nonfunctional requirements are those that specify criteria that can be used to judge the operation of a system, rather than specific behaviors or functions. They often define the quality attributes, system performance, and constraints within which the system must operate, such as security measures, usability, and reliability. Technical constraints can include limitations related to technology standards, system performance metrics, regulatory compliance, and interoperability with other systems. These requirements provide essential guidance for the system's design and implementation, ensuring that it not only meets its functional goals but also adheres to necessary technical standards and expectations. Other classifications such as functional requirement, operational requirement, and user requirement focus on what the system should do, the operational context of the system, or the needs and expectations of the users, respectively, and do not encompass the broader constraints imposed by technical considerations.
