A Model-Oriented Requirements Traceability Framework for Small and Medium Software Industries

Abstract

The Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) has been a proficient approach to judge the maturity level of any software development business. For all software companies, it is very essential to develop standardize software systems for the characteristics essential for that maturity stage. The revolution in the software industry has brought advancement from programming-oriented development to model-oriented approach. Presently Model-Driven Development is turning into a rising method for creating software solutions most effectively. At Managed, which is the second level of CMMI, we need to keep up the bi-directional trace of the meta-models for better administration of user demands. Keeping up a bi-directional trace in such systems is very difficult for engineers, particularly during the assessment and upgrading stages. In this research, we have foreseen a model-based trace model and assessed its presentation dependent on currently used methodologies. This procedure will give a premise to software designers and scientists to propose progressively productive strategies for trace management in model-based systems for organizations.
