A significant amount of data gets produced as part of software development activities. In addition to numerous deliverables (e.g., source code, test cases), an active development organization will typically generate numerous internal artifacts that contain knowledge about the software under construction. Internal project artifacts can be generated manually (e.g., how-to guides), or automatically (e.g., execution traces). Considered as a whole, the artifacts produced as part of software development activities constitute an important repository of knowledge about a software project. Given the knowledge-intensive nature of software development, effective use of accumulated software project knowledge has the potential to help software development organizations increase their productivity and the quality of their products.

大量的数据作为软件开发活动的一部分产生。除了许多可交付成果（例如，源代码、测试用例），一个活跃的开发组织通常会生成大量的内部工件，这些工件包含关于正在构造的软件的知识。内部项目工件可以手动生成（例如，操作指南），或自动地（例如，执行跟踪）。作为一个整体来考虑，作为软件开发活动的一部分而产生的工件构成了关于软件项目的重要知识库。鉴于软件开发的知识密集型性质，有效地利用积累的软件项目知识有可能帮助软件开发组织提高他们的生产力和产品质量。
