Design correlation
Design correlation involves the application of software engineering practices to fine-
tune the structural configuration to bring the design solution within specification. The 
cohesive structural design exhibits collaborative technical and performance charac-
teristics that must be gauged against the functional architecture and software require-
ments specifications. Aspects of the design solution that fall short of these prerequisites 
must be adjusted to bring the structural design into compliance. The design refinement 
actions should be guided by the conduct of an engineering trade-off analysis.
