Abstract

The work reported here builds on the framework for engineering information development traceability by discussing the traceability records implementation within engineering environment. The four key processes in the product development practice (requirement-, change-, characteristic-, and decision management) have been considered in more details as a basis for the development of the traceability reference model. Reference model for traceability records represents dynamic container of the traceability elements, information and links semantically enriched in order to provide the context of the information objects development. Two case studies for preliminary evaluation of the presented approach have been shortly discussed. The further steps in TRENIN (www.trening.org) project progression have been identified and described.
