摘要:The development process of scientific applications is largely dependent on scientific progress and theexperimental research results. Thus, dealing with frequent changes is one of the main problems faced bythe developers of scientific software. Taking into account the results of the survey conducted amongscientists in the HP-SEE project, the implementation of change management and version control softwareprocesses is inevitable. In this paper, we propose software engineering principles that should be includedin the development process to improve the version control and change management. Moreover, we givesome specific recommendations for their implementation, thereby making a slight modification of alreadygenerally accepted templates and methods. The development steps practiced by scientists should not bereplaced completely, but they need to be supplemented with appropriate practices, documents and formalmethods. We also emphasize the reasons for the inclusion of these two processes and the consequences thatmay arise as a result of their non-application.
