Abstract

The system software for the Consolidated Automated Support System (CASS) contains approximately three thousand modules and nearly two million lines of source code. This software is currently being used on several different configurations of CASS at multiple sites to develop and run numerous Test Program Sets (TPS). Because of the complexity of the software, the vast quantities of code, and the large number of users; proper configuration management (CM) of the CASS system software is crucial to the overall success of the CASS program. This paper will briefly describe how CASS system software CM is performed. Topics include the requirements of CASS users, configuration identification, configuration status accounting, the change control process, and distribution of software
