Configuration Management (CM) is a technic of identifying, organizing,
and controlling modification to software being built by a programming
team.
SCM Process
It uses the tools which keep that the necessary change has been
implemented adequately to the appropriate component. The SCM process
defines a number of tasks:
There are three main classifications of risks which can affect a software project:
1. Project risks
2. Technical risks
3. Business risks
1. Project risks: Project risks concern differ forms of budgetary, schedule, personnel,
resource, and customer-related problems. A vital project risk is schedule slippage.
Since the software is intangible, it is very tough to monitor and control a software
project. It is very tough to control something which cannot be identified. For any
manufacturing program, such as the manufacturing of cars, the plan executive can
recognize the product taking shape.
2. Technical risks: Technical risks concern potential method, implementation,
interfacing, testing, and maintenance issue. It also consists of an ambiguous
specification, incomplete specification, changing specification, technical uncertainty,
and technical obsolescence. Most technical risks appear due to the development
team's insufficient knowledge about the project.
3. Business risks: This type of risks contain risks of building an excellent product that
no one need, losing budgetary or personnel commitments, etc.
1. 1. Known risks: Those risks that can be uncovered after careful assessment of
the project program, the business and technical environment in which the plan
is being developed, and more reliable data sources (e.g., unrealistic delivery
date)
2. 2. Predictable risks: Those risks that are hypothesized from previous project
experience (e.g., past turnover)
3. 3. Unpredictable risks: Those risks that can and do occur, but are extremely
tough to identify in advance.
