....and must make use of the proprietary tools associated with the reuse architecture. The FreeBSD porting system supports the FreeBSD user community by organizing freely available software into a carefully constructed hierarchy known as the ports collection . The system uses specialized make [7] macros and variables to enable the building of systems in the hierarchy as well as to manage their associated dependencies. It uses various forms of heuristics to determine a site s state and employs the results in building and installing a software package. SRM seems to be complementary to the ....

....be scope for similar process migration within UNIX based networks, and this paper should provide food for thought to anyone with strategic responsibility for the development of any of the fifty seven varieties of UNIX. The inventor of make has reviewed some of the make oids (sympathetically) in [Feld88], and some ritual abuses of make (e.g. for installing software as well as merely building it) have been catalogued (tediously) in [Sing86] Kielmann [Kiel92] has described a simple Prolog based make oid which exploits Prolog s pattern matching facilities to extend the expressiveness of make ....

....(VM CM) Although, SEEs which maintain fine grained dependencies as mentioned above, are now existing [Lew88] most available VM CM models still assume a very coarse grained object model. Basically, versioned objects correspond to files whose particular contents is not considered e.g. Tic82, Fel88, BE87, ML88] Such a coarse grained version model makes it impossible to preserve inter document dependencies and to control change propagation on the fine grained level sketched above. Illustrating examples will follow in the next section. The main new features presented in this paper are: ffl ....
