Abstract:	Traceability is considered crucial for establishing and maintaining consistency between software development artifacts. Although considerable research has been devoted to relating requirements and design artifacts with source code, less attention has been paid to relating requirements with architecture by using well-defined semantics of traces. We present a tool that provides trace establishment by using semantics of traces between R&A (Requirements and Architecture). The tool provides the following: (1) generation/validation of traces by using requirements relations and/or verification of architecture, (2) generation/validation of requirements relations by using traces. The tool uses the semantics of traces together with requirements relations and verification results for generating and validating traces. It is based on model transformations in ATL and term-rewriting logic in Maude.
