Description
Summary:Software Configuration Management (SCM) forms part of the software development process. Its principal goal is to coordinate this development and minimize all possible errors. In order to meet its goal various activities are carried out, of which can be identified: items identification, change control, version control, audit and status reporting. Inside enterprise applications the software development can be guided from system model as methodology. The name of this methodology is Model Driven Architecture (MDA). The use of this methodology has the objectives of increasing development´s velocity through the automatic generation code as well as keeping updated all the documents belonging to the system in relation to the existing code. The ways to carry out the mentioned activities in the SCM process differ between projects that use MDA methodology and other projects that do not use MDA methodology. Some aspects must be taken into account during the implementation of each activity described in the SCM process. Following this, the author mentions some ideas to take into account in each aspect of the process to ensure giving a guide on how to proceed in front of these kinds of project that use MDA methodology.
