Information on Allocated Baseline
The Allocated Baseline is the product of the Preliminary
Design stage of the system lifecycle. The Allocated Baseline
has a subsystem-level focus and provides a physical architecture for
the system at the subsystem level. The Allocated Baseline
is called "allocated" because the subsystem functionality that flows from
the system-level Functional Baseline is now allocated to physical subsystems.
The physical subsystems in the Allocated Baseline are called
Configuration Items. The principal component of the Allocated Baseline
are Development Specifications, which normally exist for each Configuration Item.
Development Specifications are detailed descriptions of the functionality of the
configuration item, at the subsystem level, grouped physically.
The Allocated Baseline describes the Physical Architecture of the system.
