Abstract

Change management is an essential part of the whole software life cycle. A systematic treatment for changes is still an open issue. In order to overcome this situation we develop a framework for change management of software systems that covers the entire lifecyle and allows to focus change management within a software development process to individual steps. This framework is based on problem description, on categorisation of problems, on elicitation of causes, and solutions to these problems. We show how the framework may be extended for special systems such as database systems.
