SCRAM: Software configuration and management for the LHC Computing Grid project

摘要

Recently SCRAM (Software Configuration And Management) has been adopted bythe applications area of the LHC computing grid project as baselineconfiguration management and build support infrastructure tool. SCRAM is a software engineering tool, that supports the configurationmanagement and management processes for software development. It resolves theissues of configuration definition, assembly break-down, build, projectorganization, run-time environment, installation, distribution, deployment, andsource code distribution. It was designed with a focus on supporting adistributed, multi-project development work-model. We will describe the underlying technology, and the solutions SCRAM offers tothe above software engineering processes, while taking a users view of thesystem under configuration management.
