Parallel Development Strategies

Software project managers routinely face the challenge of developing parallel configurations of software assets. If not identified and planned for in advance, the complexity introduced by parallel development can derail even an otherwise well-managed project.

This white paper describes business situations where parallel development is necessary and examines strategies for configuration management in each situation. It encourages software project managers and SCM practitioners to carefully analyze project requirements at an early stage and choose the most appropriate SCM tool. The paper argues that with a disciplined development process and the use of a robust SCM solution that offers advanced branching and merging capabilities such as MKS Source Integrity, project managers can avoid many of the difficulties that have traditionally beset branching and merging within software repositories.
