Return to Part 1 Requirements

The Logical Architecture / PIM SHALL provide Traceability from logical elements to the conceptual elements they specialize, refine, constrain, or relate.

Part 1, Section 13.9: Relationship to Logical Architecture / PIM Requirements.

Traceability from logical elements to conceptual elements preserves the connection between conceptual meaning and logical refinement. It allows reviewers to confirm that each logical element has a conceptual basis and that logical refinement does not change conceptual meaning.

This requirement supports forward review, backward review, impact analysis, and controlled evolution between Part 1 and the Logical Architecture / PIM.

This requirement applies to Logical Architecture / PIM traceability relationships.

It applies specifically to logical elements that:

• Specialize conceptual elements
• Refine conceptual elements
• Constrain conceptual elements
• Relate to conceptual elements
• Support conceptual-to-logical review

Verification SHALL confirm that the Logical Architecture / PIM provides Traceability from logical elements to the conceptual elements they specialize, refine, constrain, or relate.

Verification activities include review checks confirming that:

• Logical elements identify related conceptual elements
• Trace links describe specialization, refinement, constraint, or relationship
• Trace links support review from logical elements back to conceptual elements
• Trace links support impact analysis between conceptual and logical material
