International workshop on software configuration management (SCM-10): new practices, new challenges, and new boundaries

Abstract

This report provides a brief summary of SCM-10, the ICSE 2001 10^th International Workshop on Software Configuration Management. The primary goal of this workshop was to broaden the scope of SCM and establish ties with other disciplines that are strongly related to SCM---whether requiring some form of novel, advanced SCM functionality or influencing the field of SCM with newly available technology. As demonstrated by the accepted set of position papers and the lively discussion in the workshop, SCM-10 succeeded in achieving this goal and raised many new and important questions to be addressed in the years to come.
