Information on Non-Functional Requirement

While a functional requirement defines the services and functions that the system should provide, a non-functional requirement describes the qualities or attributes that it must posses. A non-functional requirement may also describe the constraints under which the system should operate, and on the way in which the system is to be developed. A non-functional requirement could also provide definitions of system interfaces and information about the application domain of the system (for example, how to carry out particular types of computation).
