Learn software concepts - Software Configuration Management - Baselines

Learn about what the baselines are, and what does this mean. A baseline is used to specify a point of comparison, in the sense that you measure the current state, and measure future progress against such a baseline. Read the complete article (link):

In terms of software engineering, a baseline is a milestone in the development of software. A baseline is marked by the delivery of one or more software configuration items that have been approved as a consequence of a formal technical review. Software engineering tasks produce one or more software configuration items (SCIs). After SCIs are reviewed and approved, they are placed in a project database. When a member of a software team wants to make a modification to a baselined SCI, it is copied from the project database into the engineer's private
workspace. However, this extracted SCI can be modified only if SCM controls are followed.
