Return to Part 1 Requirements

Statement

A later part that specializes, realizes, deploys, tests, or evidences a conceptual element SHALL preserve Traceability to that conceptual element.

Source

Part 1, Section 13.10: Profile and Layering Requirements.

Rationale

Later parts refine and realize conceptual elements through domain profiles, logical models, implementation profiles, deployment artifacts, tests, and evidence. Traceability to the conceptual element preserves the relationship between later material and the conceptual architecture.

This requirement supports forward review, backward review, impact analysis, evidence support, and controlled evolution across the document set.

Applies To

This requirement applies to later parts that specialize, realize, deploy, test, or evidence conceptual elements.

It applies specifically to:

Domain specializationLogical realizationImplementation realizationDeployment realizationTestability materialEvidence material

Verification

Verification SHALL confirm that later parts preserve Traceability to conceptual elements they specialize, realize, deploy, test, or evidence.

Verification activities include review checks confirming that:

Specialisations trace to related conceptual elementsRealisations trace to related conceptual elements through logical and implementation mappingsDeployment material traces to related conceptual or implementation elementsTestability and Evidence material trace to the conceptual elements or claims they support

Traceability
