Christoph Wagner 5b658e2468 docs: add architectural review and requirement refinement verification 
Complete architectural analysis and requirement traceability improvements:

  1. Architecture Review Report (NEW)
     - Independent architectural review identifying 15 issues
     - 5 critical issues: security (no TLS), buffer inadequacy, performance
       bottleneck, missing circuit breaker, inefficient backoff
     - 5 major issues: no metrics, no graceful shutdown, missing rate limiting,
       no backpressure, low test coverage
     - Overall architecture score: 6.5/10
     - Recommendation: DO NOT DEPLOY until critical issues resolved
     - Detailed analysis with code examples and effort estimates

  2. Requirement Refinement Verification (NEW)
     - Verified Req-FR-25, Req-NFR-7, Req-NFR-8 refinement status
     - Added 12 missing Req-FR-25 references to architecture documents
     - Confirmed 24 Req-NFR-7 references (health check endpoint)
     - Confirmed 26 Req-NFR-8 references (health check content)
     - 100% traceability for all three requirements

  3. Architecture Documentation Updates
     - system-architecture.md: Added 4 Req-FR-25 references for data transmission
     - java-package-structure.md: Added 8 Req-FR-25 references across components
     - Updated DataTransmissionService, GrpcStreamPort, GrpcStreamingAdapter,
       DataConsumerService with proper requirement annotations

  Files changed:
  - docs/ARCHITECTURE_REVIEW_REPORT.md (NEW)
  - docs/REQUIREMENT_REFINEMENT_VERIFICATION.md (NEW)
  - docs/architecture/system-architecture.md (4 additions)
  - docs/architecture/java-package-structure.md (8 additions)

  All 62 requirements now have complete bidirectional traceability with
  documented architectural concerns and critical issues identified for resolution.

Raw Blame History

Critical Issues - RESOLVED

Status: ✅ ALL CRITICAL ISSUES RESOLVED

Date Resolved: 2025-11-19

Issue 1: Buffer Size Conflict ✅ RESOLVED

Original Issue

  • Req-FR-26 stated: "max 300 messages"
  • Configuration Spec stated: "max_messages: 300000"
  • Impact: 1000x difference affecting memory and system behavior

Resolution

Stakeholder Decision: Buffer size confirmed as 300 messages

Changes Made

  1. ✅ Updated requirements/HSP_Configuration_File_Specification.md line 31:

    • Changed: "max_messages": 300000
    • To: "max_messages": 300

  2. ✅ Requirement confirmed:

    • Req-FR-26: "If gRPC transmission fails, HSP shall buffer collected data in memory (max 300 messages)."

Impact Assessment

  • Memory Usage: With 300 messages max @ ~1MB each = ~300MB max buffer
  • System Behavior: FIFO overflow with 300 message capacity
  • Architecture: No changes needed, designed for this capacity
  • Status: Consistent across all documentation

Issue 2: Duplicate Requirement IDs ✅ RESOLVED

Original Issues

2.1 Req-FR-25 (Duplicate)

  • Line 66: "HSP shall then send the collected and aggregated data to the CollectorSender Core as decribed below."
  • Line 67: "If gRPC transmission fails, HSP shall buffer collected data in memory (max 300 messages)."

Resolution: Renumbered line 67 and subsequent requirements

  • Line 67: Now Req-FR-26 (buffer 300 messages)
  • Line 68: Now Req-FR-27 (discard oldest) - was Req-FR-26
  • Lines 70-75: Renumbered Req-FR-28 through Req-FR-33

2.2 Testing Requirements (Req-NFR-7, Req-NFR-8 duplicates)

  • Lines 117-118: Duplicate Req-NFR-7 and Req-NFR-8 in Testing Requirements section
  • Lines 119-120: Req-NFR-9 and Req-NFR-10 also in Testing section

Resolution: Created new Testing Requirements category

  • Req-Test-1: Integration tests shall verify HTTP collection with a mock HTTP server
  • Req-Test-2: Integration tests shall verify gRPC transmission with a mock gRPC server
  • Req-Test-3: Tests shall use JUnit 5 and Mockito frameworks
  • Req-Test-4: All tests shall be executable via 'mvn test' command

2.3 User Stories (Req-US-1 triplicate)

  • Lines 126-128: All three user stories labeled as Req-US-1

Resolution: Renumbered user stories

  • Req-US-1: System operator story (automatic data collection)
  • Req-US-2: Data analyst story (reliable gRPC transmission)
  • Req-US-3: System administrator story (health check monitoring)

Updated Requirement Count

Before Fix

  • Architecture: 8
  • Functional: 32 (with 1 duplicate)
  • Non-Functional: 10 (with 2 duplicates in Testing)
  • Normative: 6
  • Testing: 0
  • User Stories: 3 (all labeled Req-US-1)
  • Total: 57 (with 4 duplicate IDs)

After Fix ✅

  • Architecture: 8 (Req-Arch-1 to 8)
  • Functional: 33 (Req-FR-1 to 33) - increased by 1
  • Non-Functional: 8 (Req-NFR-1 to 8) - reduced by 2
  • Normative: 6 (Req-Norm-1 to 6)
  • Testing: 4 (Req-Test-1 to 4) - NEW category
  • User Stories: 3 (Req-US-1 to 3) - properly numbered
  • Total: 62 unique requirements (no duplicates)
