Specification-Driven Development: A Systematic Mapping Study and a Genealogy

A systematic mapping study of 138 sources on specification-driven development, classified along seven facets, with a genealogy of five earlier movements that advanced a related claim: automatic programming, formal specification, Cleanroom, literate programming and model-driven architecture.
