Claim One:
1. A method of organizing received decision instances based on reference architecture, comprising: determining a respective particular project phase attribute for each of the decision instances; classifying the decision instances in accordance with each of the respective particular project phase attributes thereof; determining a respective scope attribute for each of the decision instances in each set of decision instances classified in accordance with each of the respective particular project phase attributes; categorizing the decision instances in accordance with each of the respective scope attributes thereof; for all decision instances with the same categorization and with the same classification, ordering the corresponding decision instances by model elements to which each applicable decision instance refers; modeling directed links between apparently dependent decision instances, whose apparent dependencies are derived from the reference architecture; analyzing the dependent decision instances to confirm that the decision instances satisfy the apparent dependencies represented by the directed links and producing an error message if a result of the analysis is negative; and generating a real-time updateable and/or modifiable to-do list interface in which the classified, categorized and ordered decision instances are represented along with corresponding directed links.
