1. A method, comprising:
- identifying a plurality of entities having relationships therebetween, the plurality of entities comprising at least one of a graphical model, generated code, a generated report, a requirements document or an intermediate representation;
accessing a first entity from the plurality of entities;
accessing a second entity from the plurality of entities; and
mapping the first entity to the second entity, where mapping the first entity to the second entity includes bi-directionally mapping a first part of the first entity to a second part of the second entity.

Abstract
Exemplary embodiments employ a mapping among entities that are related to each other. The entities may include a graphical model, generated code, a generated report, a requirements document and/or an intermediate representation. The mapping may facilitate graphical identifications between parts of one entity that maps to part of another entity. The graphical identification may occur based on a selection of a part in one of the entities.
