Software Connguration Management and Engineering Data Management: Diierences and Similarities

Engineering data management and software con guration management have been evolving fairly independently On the other hand it has been observed earlier that many parallels exist In this paper we examine the similarities of and di erences between EDM and SCM Many concepts are similar but there are some di erences concerning the objects to be managed As a consequence some sophisticated fea tures of modern SCM systems are not applicable in the EDM domain because they are based on assumptions which do not hold there objects represented as text les tools operating towards the le system Some suggestions for further work on version models and on the architecture of version support systems are outlined
