Title
Fine-grained management of software artefacts: the ADAMS system
Abstract
We present ADvanced Artefact Management System (ADAMS), a web-based system that integrates project management features, such as work-breakdown structure definition, resource allocation, and schedule management as well as artefact management features, such as artefact versioning, traceability management, and artefact quality management. In this article we focus on the fine-grained artefact management approach adopted in ADAMS, which is a valuable support to high-level documentation and traceability management. In particular, the traceability layer in ADAMS is used to propagate events concerning changes to an artefact to the dependent artefacts, thus also increasing the context-awareness in the project. We also present the results of experimenting with the system in software projects developed at the University of Salerno. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
