After reading the above problem description, list and justify all non-functional requirements for this system. Consider the following problem description:A private neighborhood health clinic wants to automate management of their operations by implementing aninteractive web-based software system using the htm15 standard, which should make the system run on tabletsand smart phones as well as desktop and laptop machines. The Clinic Management System (CMS) is to be used byboth patients and the clinic personnel (doctors, nurses, and administrative staff). A patient will be able to makeon-line appointments for an examination, cancel an existing appointment, inspect lab results, check theiroutstanding balance and make payments using their credit cards. A doctor will be able to record their schedulesincluding the time periods they are busy and periods they have time-off. They will also be able to browse theirschedules for any appointments for examinations. The doctors could also ask to cancel appointments during aspecified period, in case they become unavailable for unexpected reasons, subject to approval by clinic director,who is also a doctor with management responsibilities. A doctor may browse a list of his/her patients, includingpast patients. Initially only some brief information is displayed for each patient but the doctor may ask for details(including picture and patient records in chronological order). A nurse will be able to request time-off using CMS,subject to approval by the head nurse (head nurse herself/himself reports to the clinic director). Theadministrative staff can also help patients, doctors and nurses to perform operations on their behalf, in situationswhere such a user does not have access to the Internet. The accounting of the clinic for both customers (balancesdue) and clinic personnel (their salaries and other compensation) are to be managed by an existing softwaremodule put in place by the clinic when they first started operation. User authentication is especially critical forsuch a system with sensitive information for both patients and clinic personnel. In addition, clinic currently hasPage 5 of 6only about a couple of hundred active patients but as time goes by, especially after the automated system is inplace, the clinic management expects to have at least thousands of patients if not more. To attract morecustomers, the clinic management has also decided to put two types (silver and gold) of memberships in placewith varying privileges. One can become a silver customer if they have used clinic facilities pretty regularly for atleast two years. A customer who has been a silver customer for at least two years gets to be a gold customer,assuming they have never failed to make payments past their due dates. Both silver and gold customers areprovided with more flexible time slots for making appointments. Gold customers get additional privileges such asgetting an SMS notification when their lab results are ready.After reading the above problem description, list and justify all non-functional requirements for this system.
