Explanation of Solution
Estimating year to buy rotating disk storage:
In between the 10-year period 2005 and 2015, the unit price of the rotating disk is dropped by a factor of 16.
This means that the price drops by a factor of “2” roughly in every 18 months or so...

Q1) Consider a simple traffic light system to regulate safe pedestrian crossing on a busy lane. Consider the following system requirement:(SysReq:)The traffic lights shall allow pedestrians to safely cross the lane by stopping cars
together with the following software requirements:
(SofReq1:)The light switch for pedestrians will be set to 'green' within x seconds after the pedestrian button has been pressed.
(SofReq2:)The light switch for cars will be set to 'red' at least y seconds before the light switch for pedestrians is set to 'green'.
Find missing environment assumptions and domain properties that are necessary to build the following satisfaction argument:
{SofReq1, SofReq2, assumptions?, domain properties?} =SysReq
Are the missing domain properties adequate? Are the missing assumptions realistic?
