This paper describes the facilities currently available to support auditing and traceability within a system which provides ne-grained con-guration and version management. We contend that the relationship between the connguration management system and the underlying version control system is a critical factor which governs many aspects of the facilities supporting traceability. The model of tra...

This article addresses the sustainable traceability issue in the food supply chain from the sourcing perspective in which consumer willingness to pay for traceability is considered. There are two supplier types: traceable suppliers, which are costly but can carry a precise recall in food safety events, and non-traceable suppliers, which are less expensive but may suffer a higher cost in food sa...

Software traceability is central to medical device software development and essential for regulatory approval. In order to comply with the regulatory requirements of the medical device industry it is essential to have clear linkages and traceability from requirements including risks through the different stages of the software development and maintenance lifecycles. The regulatory bodies reques...

Blackburn, Etzion and Ng showed in a paper in 2010 that there exist 2-traceability codes of length l of size cqdl/4e, where the constant c depends only on l. The question remains as to what the best possible c may be. A well-known construction using error-correcting codes with high minimum distance gives 2-traceability codes of size cqdl/4e with c ≥ 1. However, in the same paper, an example of ...

This thesis focuses on the biometric traceability of wood logs. Biometric log traceability is at an early stage and present research treats traceability in the sawmill. State-of-the-art systems use Radio Frequency Identi cation (RFID) or plastic batches to reach log traceability from forest site to further processing companies. This work is a preliminary study on biometric log traceability usin...

i Abstract Requirements are a key aspect of software development. Requirements are also related with other software artefacts including designs, test cases and documentation. These artefacts are often captured with specialized models. However, many tools lack support for traceability relationships between requirements artefacts and model artefacts, leading to analysis issues. To establish trace...

In order to assure traceability along the meat transformation process, a powerful system is required. The administrative traceability shows limits that the use of genetic markers could overcome. The individual genomes contain sequence differences, basis of the genetic polymorphism of which the genetic markers are the witnesses. Among them, two classes seem to dominate on the traceability field:...

Food companies and governments in many countries are putting increasing emphasis on establishment of food traceability systems. Food traceability has become an effective way in food safety management. Aimed at food safety problems of cereal and oil products existing in the production, processing, warehousing, distribution and other links in the supply chain, this paper firstly proposes a new tr...

The quality safety traceability of meat food has played important role in governmental law, food industry management strategies, and consumers. Many institution and software companies have developed a lot of traceability system. There is a growing perception to implementation of reusability, multi resource data fusion and information sharing of the different system. The conceptual model is the ...

The circulation of wheat products involves a number of different types of food-related enterprises, including planting bases, grain trading companies, warehousing enterprises, food processing plants, sales companies and so on. The centralized traceability architecture cannot meet the requirements such as transaction data security. While, the distributed traceability architecture faces the diffi...
