Word origin
The term 'nonfunctional' originated in the field of software development to distinguish between the requirements that describe how a system should behave (functional requirements) and the requirements that describe system attributes like performance and usability (nonfunctional requirements). The concept has since been adopted in various other industries to differentiate between the core functionality of a product and its supplementary characteristics.
