The EIP and WEBOA System of Shanghai Telecom_
Changtu Transition Software Management System
Abstract
With information systems being more and more complex and the frequency of hardware and software update increased, the effective management for hardware and software versions is highly demanded. And relying on the artificial method has been difficult to meet the requirements. Particularly, in the transmission network system, not only a large number of software and hardware equipment are involved, but between software modules, there are more complicated correlations. In Shanghai Telecom’s transmission system, the whole software itself has a version, and the modules which compose the software have their own versions, artificial management can’t satisfy the needs.
Besides the complexity of the software itself, one must apply officially if one wants to update the software. Only after the application is permitted by some leaders, can the software be updated. And after the update is finished, some history information about this update must be saved. Manual management can't confirm whether the flow is strictly executed.
This System is developed by the need of the Shanghai Telecom, and it automates, and regularizes the management for the version of the transmission software of Shanghai Telecom.
This paper firstly introduces where the problem is come from, the significance of the research, and the present state. And then the process of the design and implementation of the system will be described in detail.
