Abstract

In Learning Content Management (LCM) systems the data of most interest is the learning objects. However, today's LCM systems do not yet address the problem of content versioning in a unified way. Many small- and medium-sized LCM systems do not even support different versions of content. This paper points out that the requirements of version management in LCM systems differ from those in other areas, where some research work has been done in the field of version control, e.g. in Software Configuration Management. An object-oriented version control system is presented. This accomplishes the requirements of LCM systems and addresses the version management of object-oriented LCM systems in a uniform way. The version control system described in this paper is characterized by five versioning properties: application specific, fine-grained, structure-oriented, evolution-resistant and orthogonal concerning the data model.
