ABSTRACT
The Applications Group at the Academic Computing Center maintains approximately 100 applications software products on our CDC 170/750 Cyber computer. We also maintain some 30 products on each of five instructional Digital Equipment VAXes. Most of these we receive from vendors, some have been developed locally, and some of these we distribute to other sites.
In order to manage the workload, we have developed over a period of time an automated product management system, which we call Hellas. The basic philosophy behind Hellas is that a software maintenance system will be successful if it is simple to use, has a straight-forward methodology, and fits our computing system management requirements.
For the most part, this paper will describe the Hellas system as it is implemented on the Cyber computer. The features, however, have their analogs on the VAX computers as well.

An Automated Framework for Variability Management of Service-Oriented Software Product Lines
SOSE '13: Proceedings of the 2013 IEEE Seventh International Symposium on Service-Oriented System EngineeringService Oriented Architecture (SOA) development practices typically lack a systematic framework for managing variability in service requirements and architectures. This paper addresses this gap by applying software product line (SPL) concepts to model ...
Bridging the gap between software product management and software project management
PROFES '10: Proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Product Focused SoftwareThis paper presents an empirical research to the relations and dependencies between the fields of software product management and software project management in product software companies. By carrying out interviews and an online survey, we answer ...
Software Vulnerabilities Integrated Management System
2020 13th International Conference on Communications (COMM)In simple terms, a vulnerability can be an error or a flaw in code design which can determine malfunction of an application. Software vulnerabilities are the main cause of computer security problems. In order to avoid an attack or to minimize the damages ...
