|kurzfassung=In software development, software architecture plays a vital role in developing and maintaining software systems.

This thesis proposes an approach for recovering traceability links of software architecture relations between natural language SAD and SAM.

The evaluation shows that the ChatGPT approach has promising results in relation extraction with a recall of 0.81 and in traceability link recovery with an F1-score of 0.83, while BERT-based models struggle due to the lack of domain-specific training data.

Kurzfassung In software development, software architecture plays a vital role in developing and maintaining software systems. It is communicated through artifacts such as software architecture documentation (SAD) and software architecture models (SAM).
