Requirements Traceability and Embedded Systems

Embedded systems pose particular design and development challenges. As hardware and software continue to converge and lines blur between the two, an overlooked software or system requirement could lead to painful hardware redesign late in the process. Requirements tracing, or traceability, is critical to your products success.

In this whitepaper, Requirements authority Karl Wiegers explains…

• What requirements traceability is and why complex product development depends on it.
• How to build requirements tracing into your teams process, connecting teams and data as they go.
• How to prevent unexpected rework and reduce the risk of delayed product certification and customer (and company) catastrophes.
