Requirement allocation sheet
The requirements allocation sheet (RAS) identifies the elements of the software 
architecture and computing environment that contribute to the achievement of 
software requirements. The RAS provides the detailed information concerning the 
manner in which the software functions, coupled with the computing environment 
characteristics, satisfy the specified software requirements. It provides traceability 
to trade-study results and design decision memorandums from which the resulting 
allocation was derived. The RAS must be aligned with the requirements traceabil-
ity matrix, which provides additional traceability among the software engineering 
design artifacts for each software requirement.
