A SYSML-Based Approach to Manage Stakeholder Requirements Traceability
Saida Haidrar, Adil Anwar, Ounsa Roudiès · 2017
Tracing requirements back to stakeholders and tracing them forward to corresponding design artifacts are crucial activities. Even if much research has been devoted to managing requirements and their various kinds, less attention has been paid to managing their traceability throughout system development process. In this paper, we present a SYSML-based approach to enhance requirements traceability in SYSML modelling diagrams and generate trace links at different levels of granularity. Our contribution consists of a SYSML profile for enriching requirements definition and traceability, and an algorithm for generating trace models. Indeed, these trace models will link requirements to their origins and system design elements, and eventually map them to the element property that exactly fulfills them. Antilock braking system example illustrates the profile and algorithm usage.
