Organizing RUP Use Case Realization in EA

[csousa]

Our team is new to EA and we are looking for any thoughts or experiences on how you may have organized RUP Use Case Realizations (within your EA model).

We will likely develop several realizations where needed for each use case in our model (view of participating classes, sequence diagrams...etc.).  

There seems to be two approaches:

1) Within EA, we can organize these as diagrams within (under neath) each use case in our analysis

or

2) we can place them in a seperate package and use naming conventions combined with some form of trace to tie it back to the functional use case.


Considering that we'd like to be in a good position to easily publish the use case model along with realizations, I am leaning towards option 1 (within the use case). However, if we end up doing a significant number of realizations for a single use case, this could get messy.

Does anyone have advice on either approach (or a suggestion for an approach we haven't considered)?

Try to search for Collaboration here on the board. I posted something related to Use Case Realizations some time ago.

Also, try out HTML reporting in EA. If this style of publication works for your team, this might affect your decision on which way to go.
