COMAND – A Distributed Configuration Management Framework
نویسندگان
چکیده
Software development is becoming a more and more distributed process, which urgently needs supporting tools in the field of configuration management, software process/workflow management, communication and problem tracking. In this paper we present a new distributed software configuration management framework COMAND. It offers high availability through replication and a mechanism to easily change and adapt the project structure to new business needs. To better understand and formally prove some properties of COMAND, we have modeled it in a formal technique based on distributed graph transformations. This formalism provides an intuitive rule-based description technique mainly for the dynamic behavior of the system on an abstract level. We use it here to model the replication subsystem.
