Managing Knowledge about Information System Evolution

Summary: Proposes a KBMS to govern database software development and maintenance. Uses a CML-based knowledge model to capture the tool-aided lifecycle from requirements through design to implementation, mapping to the real environment, with decision-centered docs to aid cross-team maintenance.
