Complex software systems contain a large number of interconnected development artifacts such as requirements, design models and source code. Traceability enables understanding and managing these artifacts. Establishing traceability is not a trivial task, it requires the development company to plan how traceability fits into its processes and provide tools for traceability establishment. In practice, guidelines for establishing traceability are lacking, therefore companies struggle with establishing and making the most of traceability.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
