Maintaining the evolution of software objects in an integrated enviornment

摘要

This paper discusses the organization of software objects in an integrated environment from the software configuration management view. We will emphasize organization by evolution, by membership and by composition. The paper introduces program base objects which are version controlled in order to maintain the evolution of software objects. Different specializations of such objects make it possible to maintain source objects and to support organization of software objects by membership and by composition in a uniform way.
