“Specifying the constraints” refers to the process of clearly defining the limits, conditions, and rules that must be respected in a system, project, or problem. These constraints can include technical limits, legal or regulatory requirements, resource boundaries such as time or budget, or logical and mathematical conditions. By specifying constraints, stakeholders and developers ensure that everyone understands what is allowed, what is forbidden, and which assumptions must hold. This process reduces ambiguity, guides design and implementation decisions, and helps to evaluate whether solutions are valid, feasible, and compliant with the given boundaries.
