#The management of Security features and assurances through control of changes made to Hardware , Software , Firmware , Documentation , test, test fixtures and test documentation of an Automated Information System , throughout the development and operational life of a system. ''Source Code Management'' or '' Revision Control '' is part of this. #The control of changes--including the recording thereof--that are made to the hardware, software, firmware, and documentation throughout the System Lifecycle . #The control and adaptation of the evolution of complex systems. It is the discipline of keeping evolving software products under control, and thus contributes to satisfying quality and delay constraints. Software Configuration Management (or SCM) can be divided into two areas. The first (and older) area of SCM concerns the storage of the entities produced during the software development project, sometimes referred to as Component Repository Management . The second area concerns the activities performed for the production and/or change of these entities; the term Engineering Support is often used to refer this second area. #After establishing a Configuration , such as that of a telecommunications or Computer System , the evaluating and approving Change s to the configuration and to the interrelationships among system components. #In Distributed-queue Dual-bus (DQDB) networks, the function that ensures the resources of all nodes of a DQDB Network are configured into a correct dual-bus topology. The functions that are managed include the head of bus, external timing source, and Default Slot generator functions.
