 	<h2>Background</h2>

 	<!--
 	Optionally provide the background that has lead you to creating this project.
  -->
 	<p>Model-driven engineering is more and more used and industry has
 		started to switch from traditional document-based approach to this new
 		approach. There is a clear need for system engineers to be able to
 		weave textual requirements and models all along the development cycle:
 		formalize requirements, refine them with specification models, satisfy
 		them with design models and verify them with testing models.</p>

 	<p>So there is a growing request from industry to get an open
 		source solution able to create textual requirements or gather
 		requirements wherever they exist (documents, Database, model elements,
 		annotations in code&hellip;) and to give ability to define links from
 		those requirements to any development artefact including models, but
 		also test cases, code&hellip;</p>
 	<p>There exist open source solutions to manage requirements but
 		they generally provide limited flexibility in requirement
 		organization/classification. Industry needs tooling able to classify
 		requirements and links through a customizable data model to organize
 		requirements and links according to scopes (customer, system,
 		subsystem A, SubSystem B, &hellip;).</p>
 	<p>There exist open source solutions that allow creating links
 		between requirements and other objects but there the creation of links
 		is generally too generic to provide required guidance and semantics.
 		Industry seeks for tooling able to give semantics to the links created
 		between requirements and development artefacts: for instance
 		&quot;refine&quot;, &quot;satisfy&quot;, &quot;implement&quot;,
 		verify&quot;, &hellip; and it must be possible to restrict links so
 		that they apply only between some requirements (some scope for
 		instance) and some artefacts (SysML blocks for instance).</p>
 	<p>
 		ReqCycle has been developed on the basis of <a
 			href="http://www.topcased.org">TOPCASED</a> Requirement component in
 		order to offer an Open Source solution addressing both requirement
 		management (create data model, create/import/reference
 		requirements&hellip;) and requirement traceability to any development
 		artefact that can be clearly identified as a &quot;Reacheable
 		object&quot; (through a Unified Resource Identifier) and with
 		flexibility to conform to a custom process and associated data model.
 	</p>

 	<h2>Scope</h2>

 	<!--
 	All projects must have a well-defined scope. Describe, concisely, what
 	is in-scope and (optionally) what is out-of-scope. An Eclipse project
 	cannot have an open-ended scope.
  -->
 	<p>ReqCycle can define data models to classify requirements in
 		scopes (team organization) and in types (list of attributes) like
 		&quot;functional requirements&quot;, &quot;safety requirements&quot;,
 		and more.</p>
 	<p>ReqCycle can create requirements, import/update or reference
 		textual requirements existing in different data sources or formats
 		such as ReqIF (.reqIf), OpenOffice Writer (.odt) , Microsoft
 		Word&trade;(.docx), openOffice Calc (.ods) or Microsoft
 		Excel&trade;(.xslx). It can also reference requirements contained in
 		EMF models through usage of OCL rules to identify requirements.</p>
 	<p>ReqCycle can display all imported/referenced/created
 		requirements into treeview or tables and filter them with custom
 		criteria on requirements attributes and values.</p>
 	<p>ReqCycle can define traceability link types from requirement to
 		a model element or code, provide associated semantics to the links and
 		attributes (for instance &quot;lifecycle&quot; attribute to manage
 		requirement validation or &quot;rationale&quot; attribute in case of
 		&quot;satisfy&quot; semantics). The requirement can be restricted to a
 		given scope or structure and the model element can be restricted to a
 		specific metaclass/concept.</p>
 	<p>ReqCycle can create traceability links between requirements and
 		UML/SysML Papyrus models or Java&trade; code according to the
 		traceability link types defined in preferences. ReqCycle provides
 		extension points to create traceability to other models, code or other
 		artefacts. ReqCycle can capture existing traceability links coming
 		from different sources like SysML models or Java code.</p>
 	<p>ReqCycle can display all traceability links (created or
 		captured) into a treeview or a table and filter links with custom
 		criteria.</p>
 	<p>The framework can be extended to add new requirement import
 		connectors, new traceability analysis engines, new artefacts to take
 		into account as link targets.</p>

 	<h2>Description</h2>

 	<!--
 	Describe the project here. Be concise, but provide enough information that
 	somebody who doesn't already know very much about your project idea or domain
 	has at least a fighting chance of understanding its purpose.
  -->
 	<p>ReqCycle addresses both requirement management (create data
 		model, create/import/reference requirements&hellip;) and requirement
 		traceability of development artefacts that can be clearly identified
 		as &quot;Reacheable objects&quot; (through a Unified Resource Identifier) and
 		with flexibility to conform to a custom process and associated data
 		model.</p>
 	<p>ReqCycle is generally used in two different steps: configuration
 		and operations. Configuration is generally done by
 		&quot;methods/quality&quot; team while operations are done by system
 		engineers.</p>

 		ReqCycle is currently experimented in several contexts (avionics,

 	<h2>Why PolarSys?</h2>

 	<!--
 	Answer these two questions:	What value does this project bring to the Eclipse
 	community? What value do you expect to obtain from hosting your project at Eclipse?

 	What value do you get by having your project at Eclipse over and above the value
 	of hosting at Eclipse Labs?
  -->
 	<p>ReqCycle is a transversal component based on top of
 		Eclipse-based technologies (EMF, M2T, RMF, Papyrus) that can be used
 		in any industrial domain where requirements are key artefacts.
 		PolarSys has already identified the need of two components to manage
 		requirements and their traceability on top of Eclipse technologies.
 		ReqCycle seems to match those expectations and PolarSys is then the
 		natural place to host this project.</p>

	project. If there is no existing code, just remove this section.

	<h2>Mentors</h2>

	<!--
	New Eclipse projects require a minimum of two mentors from the Architecture
	Council. You need to identify two mentors before the project is created. The
	proposal can be posted before this section is filled in (it's a little easier
	to find a mentor when the proposal itself is public).
	-->

	<p>The following Architecture Council members will mentor this
	project:</p>

	<ul>
	<li>Benoit LANGLOIS (Thales Global Services)</li>
	<li>TBD</li>
	</ul>
