....Configuration Management System. The RCMS is part of the Raven Project at the University of British Columbia. The goal of the Raven Project is to explore a variety of issues in distributed object oriented computing. The RCMS draws its inspiration from systems such as GRAPPLE[HL88] Conic[KMS87] MKS89] and Darwin[Min85] It provides a unified, dynamic, and distributed approach to configuration management. Configuration information is represented as a series of constraints expressed in first order predicate logic. Related constraints are grouped together into units referred to as configuration ....
....[TS89] TBC 88] HL88] WSY91] few systems have attempted to encompass the features of the RCMS: 1) Active Configuration Management: The RCMS automates configuration management through the active monitoring and adjustment of all software components in a distributed system. Only Conic [MKS89] offers a similar degree of generality, and it lacks a suitably flexible configuration language and does not have the capacity to automatically modify existing configurations. 2) Declarative Specification Language: Configuration information and operational directives are represented ....

....for code and documentation, establishing a consistent mechanism for handling bug reports, etc. This aspect of configuration management is represented by tools such as make [Fel79] BVT89] SCCS [All80] RCS [Tic82] Tic85] CMA [PF89] Arcadia [TBC 88] and GRAPPLE [HL88] The Conic [KMS87] MKS89] and Lynx [Sco87] systems provide limited configuration primitives at the operating system level. SNMP and its associated tools [CDFS89] address configuration concerns in the realm of network devices and software. ISO standards such as the Common Management Information Protocol (CMIP) and the ....
....will review next. But as will be clear, the Conic system lacks advanced configuration tools of the sort that I have just been describing. The proposal which I will be advancing is an attempt to bridge this gap with a unified approach to configuration management. The emphasis in the Conic [KMS87] MKS89] project is on the construction of applications out of simpler components. At the lowest level, these components are programmed in a derivative of Pascal. The novel feature of Conic is a separate configuration language which allows a programmer to specify a composite component in terms of the ....

Distributed Configuration Management Using Composite Objects.. - Coatta, Neufeld (1994) (6 citations) (Correct)
....be internally bound to the other. Links are an extension and refinement of the filters and pipes paradigm used to connect independent processes together in Unix. The use of inter object links in the construction of re configurable software has been extensively explored within the Conic system [MKS89]. The key property of a link is that within an object a link is referred to only via a local name. Since objects are not referred to directly, links allow external reconfiguration of objects at run time. Several other features of Raven also make it an ideal platform on which to construct a ....
