Abstract

The Adele system was initially designed as a specialized data base of programs for an experimental Pascal environment, with a focus on configuration management. Later, it was redesigned as a general data base for large scale programs written in any language. The focus here was on side effect control and real problems of large industrial software products [Estublier84]. Then in a third stage Adele evolved into the kernel for programming environments and was developed as an industrial product, with emphasis on portability, flexibility, distribution, control of rights and on the structure of the software products [Belkhatir86]. This paper describes the experience gained in the use of the Adele data base of programs.1
