| + | Toolchain Integration for Autonomous Systems | ||
| + | In autonomous platforms (e.g., UAVs, vehicles), CM tools are often integrated with: | ||
| + | * Simulation tools (Gazebo, CARLA) for versioned testing. | ||
| + | * Digital twins for validation of real-world behaviour. | ||
| + | * Edge deployment systems for over-the-air (OTA) updates. | ||
| + | This hybrid approach ensures consistent software across all nodes — from cloud services to embedded controllers ((Raj, A., & Saxena, P. (2022). Software architectures for autonomous vehicle development: | ||

| + | |||
| + | Even mature organisations often encounter challenges in lifecycle and configuration management: | ||
| + | |||
| + | ^ Pitfall ^ Effect ^ Mitigation ^ | ||
| + | | Poor version control discipline | Loss of traceability | Enforce the branching strategy and pull request reviews. | | ||
| + | | Incomplete configuration audits | Undetected inconsistencies | Automate audit workflows and compliance scanning. | | ||
| + | | Manual deployment processes | Environment drift | Use CI/CD and Infrastructure as Code. | | ||
| + | | Siloed documentation | Lack of visibility | Centralise records using CMDB or ALM platforms. | | ||
| + | | Lack of cultural adoption | Resistance to process discipline | Provide training, incentives, and leadership support. | | ||
| + | |||
| + | Organisations that succeed in embedding CM practices view them not as bureaucracy, | ||
