Stefan Winkler and Jens von Pilgrim, "A Survey of Traceability in Requirements Engineering and Model-Driven Development", Software and Systems Modeling, 2009.

Focus On:

  • 1 Introduction p. 529
  • 2.2 Terminology p. 531; terms like "artifact" and "trace"
  • 2.2.2 Requirements Traceability p. 532; understand the concept of traceability links, backwards and forward traceability
  • 2.3 Traceability schemes and metamodels p. 535; this is critical: the traceability scheme is the metamodel for the information you collect about each trace -- a list of questions like what, who, where, etc.
  • 2.4 Traceability Link Types (starting with the 8 types of links in the lower right) p.537; the most important for us are the first few: dependency, refinement, evolution, satisfiability
  • 3.1 Activities Supporting Traceability p. 539
  • 3.2 and 3.2.1 Making Use of Traces p. 540; a list of all the uses of traces
  • 3.3 - 3.3.4 Representation and Visualization of Traces p. 542
