Center of Excellence for Traceability (or Traceability Consortium)
Point of Contact Jane Hayes
hayes@cs.uky.edu
Dates September 2006 - December 2007
Problem Traceability has become a challenge for many groups of stakeholders now, not just IV&V analysts who must evaluate and/or build Requirements Traceability Matrices (RTMs) after the fact. The advent of Sarbanes-Oxley Act has made the business world very interested in traceability and its automation. An informal community of researchers and collaborating sponsors and/or industrial partners has started to form and have identified a need for a Center of Excellence or Consortium for Traceability. The Center would bring together synergistic resources to define and then address grand challenges in the area. Such a Center is proposed here.
Objective #1 By September 2006, define Mission and Vision of Center #2 By January 2007, define traceability Grand Challenges, problem areas, and sub-problems #3 By February 2007, define infrastructure #4 By February 2007, define preliminary programs and services #5 By February 2007, deliver preliminary results on sub-problem research of at least one problem area of at least one Grand Challenge #6 By February 2007, disseminate information on the Center and its progress
