Method and apparatus for tracking allocatable requirements

摘要

A system level automation tool tracks allocatable requirements associated with a system design using a computer by generating a plurality of objects each defining a portion of the system. The objects may have a parent-child relationship wherein one or more of the child objects each define a portion of the parent object. The allocatable requirements may be apportioned and traced among the objects. Some allocated requirement are reallocated as some actual values are determined to differ from their allocated requirement.
