| Memory management in Rational DOORS
This article shows how to use DXL APIs to effectively manage memory when
you use DXL scripts in DOORS. With these APIs, you can monitor the memory used
by DOORS. You can take action when the memory used by DOORS reaches the
maximum threshold level. The APIs help to avoid loss of data due to an abrupt
stop of the application.

| Product Design for Variants
Recognizing the need to design for product variants and the best methods
to manage variants is critical to product development success over time.
Variant management is how you organize the list of feature variants and put
them into products. With new product development projects, planning for future
variants is not typically done at the beginning. In this article. Joanne
Scouler and Marty Bakal explain how to get started with variants. They
illustrate their points with examples from Eaton Corporation's experience in
developing variants of transmissions for heavy-duty hybrid vehicles. The
authors also describe how various Rational software products can
help.

| Integrating IBM Rational Requirements and HP ALM with Rational Lifecycle
Adapters
If you use HP Application Lifecycle Management software (HP ALM) for
quality management, you can use the IBM Rational Adapter for HP ALM to
integrate data with Rational Requirements Composer, Rational DOORS Next
Generation, Rational Team Concert, or Rational ClearQuest. Developers,
testers, and analysts can then work in their own tools and collaborate with
each other by using linked resources. The adapters also integrate the Rational
solution for Collaborative Lifecycle Management (CLM) with selected non-IBM
software. The first release includes adapters for HP ALM, Atlassian JIRA, and
Git software.

| Back up Rational software user data for quick disaster recovery
Currently, there is no supported way to plan for disaster recovery for IBM Rational software that uses Rational Directory Server. Therefore, administrators of Rational DOORS, Rational Change, Rational Synergy, and other Rational products that rely on the directory server always fear losing user data, such as rights, roles, preference settings, and so forth. Pranab Agarwal explains how to use peer-to-peer replication to back up that user data. This method also ensures that turnaround time to recover from a failure is very short, which helps in disaster recovery planning.

| Being agile while still being compliant
Experts from IBM and Diagnostic Grifols describe how Diagnostic Grifols
is using agile software development approaches in the tightly regulated field
of medical devices. "Many organizations believe that they must use a waterfall
approach in regulated environments," they say. "We show how this is not the
case."

| An overview of the TOC on AIX
On an IBM AIX system, the addresses of global symbols in C, C++, and
Fortran programs are stored in a fixed-size data structure called the table of
contents (TOC). TOC overflow occurs if the application contains more global
symbols than can fit in the TOC. This article explains how the TOC works on
AIX and the different mechanisms that can be used in the presence of TOC
overflow. It discusses the performance impact of each mechanism and provides
guidance for application developers on the best ways to use these mechanisms,
based on the characteristics of their applications.

| Improve the value of your CLM reports by using metrics
The Rational solution for Collaborative Lifecycle Management (CLM) is a set of seamlessly integrated applications that work together as one platform for managing the complete lifecycle of your development projects. The application and lifecycle data that your teams create collaboratively for their projects is provided to you for reporting by CLM in a data warehouse. Although CLM includes more than 200 sample reports, with the addition of either the Rational Reporting for Development Intelligence (RRDI) component or IBM Rational Insight, you get design tools for customizing CLM samples and creating your own reports. With these tools, you have access to the data in the warehouse, which is grouped into two main categories: operational data (ODS) and metrics. This article gives you an in-depth look at the metrics available and how to use them.

| Configure DOORS and Rational Team Concert for globally distributed workers
Rational DOORS is a widely recognized requirements management and traceability application for complex systems and software development. It can be integrated with Rational Team Concert to provide a comprehensive requirements management and collaborative change management working environment to use throughout the product development lifecycle. But imagine that the requirements analyst uses DOORS to establish the requirements in Australia, the business analysts enter stakeholder requests through DOORS Web Access in Japan to establish critical attributes values, the systems engineers develop requirements and create traceability from the UK, and the development and QA teams are in India. Plus, you might not have your servers installed in one place. This article explains how to set up servers and computers globally and provides examples. Readers can follow the sequential configurations to configure their own working environments. Prerequisites: Instructions in this article are based on the assumption that readers have an intermediate knowledge of both Rational Team Concert and Rational DOORS.

| A compiler option that helps debug optimized code
Debugging optimized code has always been a challenging task, because it could make the program state not available to debuggers. Optimization can change the sequence of operations, add or remove code, change variable data locations, and perform other transformations that make it difficult to associate the generated code with the original source statements. In this article, Daniel Chen and Tommy Hoffner introduce a compiler option that helps debug optimized code.

| Toward a Basic Profile for Linked Data
W3C defines a wide range of standards for the Semantic Web and Linked Data suitable for many
possible use cases. While using Linked Data as an application integration technology in the
Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) domain, IBM has found that there are often several possible
ways of applying the existing standards, yet little guidance is provided on how to combine them.
This article explains motivating background information and a proposal for a Basic Profile for
Linked Data.
