Abstract :
Provision of software information, which includes all kinds of documents produced during software development and maintenance, is helpful to developers or maintainers. In this paper, we describe a system, called the Software Information Management System (SIMS), for effective management of software information to support software development and maintenance. SIMS also provides a facility for a group of developers to collaborate via a project-wide and network-based bulletin board. The operational model for SIMS is the client-server model and the internal structure of software information is based on the entity-relationship model. We explain the architecture of SIMS and tools constituting SIMS. Finally, we describe the current status and future enhancements of SIMS
