 | | Software configuration management is the process whose objective is the identification of the configuration of software at discrete points in time and the systematic control of changes to the identified configuration for the purpose of maintaining software integrity and traceability throughout the software life cycle. |  | | During the software concept and initiation phase, the software concept is developed and the feasibility of building the software system is evaluated. |  | | Plans for software configuration management and the structure and size of the organization needed to implement it should be influenced by the complexity of the software to be developed, the size of the project, and on the specific responsibilities assigned to the SCM organization. |

| | Demystifying Software Configuration Management - May 1995 |
 | | Software managers may or may not know how much it is going to cost to fix a software problem; sometimes even the software engineers don't know, but their estimates are likely to be closer than the manager's estimate. |  | | You are the manager of a software development project. |  | | In fact, the contractual requirements for software configuration management sometimes lead to the development of an impractical SCM process that alienates software developers, impedes progress, and is expensive to run. |

 | | Source configuration management (Often used to indicate that a variety of artifacts may be managed and versioned, including software code, documents, design models, and even the directory structure itself.) |  | | In particular, the former vendor, Atria (later Rational Software, now a part of IBM), used "SCM" to stand for "Software Configuration Management". |  | | Environment Management- Managing the software and hardware that host our system. |

| | How You Can Benefit from Software Configuration Management |
 | | Software configuration management (SCM) is the organization of the components of a software system so that they fit together in a working order, never out of synch with each other. |  | | Software project managers pay attention to the planning and execution of configuration management, an integral task, because it facilitates the ability to communicate status of documents and code as well as changes that have been made to them. |  | | The Software Engineering Institute says that it is necessary to establish and maintain the integrity of the products of the software project throughout the software life cycle. |

| | ERCB: Software Configuration Management |
 | | Software configuration management, SCM henceforth, has been identified as one of the key process areas related to software project management. |  | | Configuration identification captures all characteristics of the software to be controlled by selecting configuration items, thus defining the level of granularity at which SCM is performed. |  | | Software complexity and its changing nature make SCM a must in software development projects. |

| | SENG 621 Software Configuration Management |
 | | Software Configuration Management is the management of changing software or software changes. |  | | This starts with the beginning of a software project and continues until the software is no longer used (it doesn't stop when the software is shipped). |  | | In order to deploy effective Software Configuration Management (SCM) technology and practices, it is important to understand the different implementation levels of SCM and align the SCM tasks with the appropriate target level within an organization. |

| | Software Configuration Management - SCM - from AccuRev |
 | | When moving from one software configuration management system to another, it is often the case that people concentrate on "Which of the pains that I have in my current SCM system will this new system alleviate?" This is certainly a valid question. |  | | Unlike legacy software configuration management tools, AccuRev fuses the development process with the management of software assets, resulting in a reduction from weeks to minutes in the time needed to complete essential software development tasks. |  | | AccuRev is a software configuration management (SCM) system. |

| | Why Software Configuration Management? |
 | | The degree to which you implement it in your environment is up to you and determined by the size, scope, and requirements of the software for which your team is responsible. |  | | In addition to putting the runtime software in its final form, release management includes the deployment process as well as the update of related metadata that goes into tracking a given version of a software application. |  | | A particular version of a software package typically consists of anywhere from a few files to thousands of files, depending on the application. |

 | | Software configuration management (SCM, or just plain CM) is an organizational framework - that is, a discipline - for managing the evolution of computer systems throughout all stages of systems development. |  | | Software Configuration Management discusses the CM framework from a standards viewpoint, using original DoD standards to describe elements of configuration management within a software engineering perspective. |  | | As you read this book you'll discover that general configuration management principles are also introduced, expanding the usefulness to integrators as well as software engineers. |

| | Steven Wilssens - What is Software Configuration Management? |
 | | A good SCM process makes it possible for developers to work together on a project in an efficient manner, both as individuals and as members of a team. |  | | An excellent place to start is to define the goals of SCM. |  | | For example: How many files were affected by fixing a bug. |
