Aldec Solves Another DO-254 Challenge with Requirements Reviewer in Spec-TRACER™

HENDERSON, Nev. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — January 28, 2014Aldec, Inc., today announces the latest release of Spec-TRACER™ 2013.12, requirements lifecycle management solution for FPGAs and ASICs. Safety-critical designs must undergo strict requirements-based design and verification processes. Spec-TRACER streamlines the requirements engineering process from capture to traceability, analysis to reporting, and design to test results management, enabling organizations to maintain control over requirements throughout the development cycle. The latest release of Spec-TRACER introduces Requirements Reviewer to simplify the review process of requirements against in-house rules and standards.

“When multiple stakeholders must review hundreds of requirements against a long checklist of standards, the review process can become convoluted and difficult to track,” said Louie De Luna, DO-254 Program Manager. “Procedures to simplify the review process and mechanisms to track progress are essential to the project’s success in achieving compliance.”

Spec-TRACER improves on traditional requirements review processes, which include using Word and Excel to manually analyze whether or not requirements adhere to standards. The solution delivers review and analysis results to include identification of the item reviewed, personnel performing the review, corrective actions, problems/errors and the actual results, providing the compliance evidence required by safety-critical regulation such as DO-254 for avionics.
