  • Patent number: 11809866
    Abstract: A change tracking and analytics system and method receives software code blocks from one or more repositories of software related to a software project, such as a new video game. Changes associated with software code blocks, such as relative to previous versions of the software code blocks, may be determined and logged. Additionally, various analytics, such as metrics associated with complexity, divergence from a master version of software code blocks, and/or any cascading effects of the software code blocks may be generated and stored in association with the software code blocks. The change information and analytics may then be used to generate any variety of reports indicating complexity, divergence, or the like over time, information related to software code blocks, and/or information related to behavior of software teams. The change information may also be used to make changes to allocated resources, such as quality assurance resources and/or software engineering resources.
    Type: Grant
