Late product delivery is a common problem in software projects. can be attributed to change especially the development and maintenance phases, leading more work than originally planned, thus increasing project completion time. One approach for managing Software Configuration Management (SCM). SCM was first introduced 1970s ensure timely of products. To date, implementation supported by recogniz...

A management model for explaining software errors is developed and estimated. The model is used to analyze two years of error log data at a commercial site. The focus is on identifying managerially controllable factors which affect software reliability. At the research site, application systems which (1) underwent frequent modification; (2) were maintained by programmers with low levels of appl...

Software Configuration Management (SCM) is the controlled way to manage the development and modification of software. For an efficient SCM process different SCM tools can be used to collect information about items being changed in the development or maintenance process. Advanced SCM tools include also Change Management which collects information related to the change process in a project. There...

This paper examines the relations between software architecture and software configuration management. These disciplines overlap because they are both concerned with the structure of a software system being described in terms of components and relationships. On the other hand, they differ with respect to their focus — specific support for programming-in-the-large, versus general support for the...
