Abstract

It is very important to trace whether all the requirements has been reflected in the developed system. However, most existing researches apply Requirement Traceability Matrix(RTM) to the whole SDLC according to the development methodology. RTM has no practical value because it has not only too many pursuit items but also its tracking method is very complicated and the practical management in developing the information system is not accomplished nearly. Therefore, in this study, we proposed an enhanced RTM which was composed of only necessary items and allow us to manage the applied area effectively from Request for Proposal(RFP) or the proposal stage to SDLC stage then confirmed the effect through six actual applicable cases of information system development project of "K" company.

소프트웨어 개발 시 요구사항들이 개발시스템에 반영되었는지 추적하는 일은 매우 중요하다. 하지만 기존 연구들은 대부분 요구사항추적표를 개발관리방법론에 따른 전체 SDLC에 모두 적용하고 있다. 그리고 추적항목이 많으며 추적방법이 복잡하여 실제 정보시스템 개발에서는 실질적인 관리가 거의 이루어지고 있지 않아 실용성에 한계가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 요구사항추적표를 제안요청 및 제안단계부터 SDLC단계 중에서 효과적으로 관리할 수 있는 적용범위와 요구사항추적에 꼭 필요한 항목만을 구성한 개선된 추적표를 제안하고 이를 적용한 K사의 정보시스템 개발프로젝트의 6개 실제 적용 사례를 통하여 그 효과를 확인 하였다.
