Abstract
A system for industrial application package management includes a computing device having a processor and a memory having executable programs and applications stored thereon, including plurality of industrial application programs running an engineering project involving multiple different disciplines, and a package manager client. The package manager client communicates with a remote repository server that hosts application packages, and sends requests for packages and receives package deliveries. The package manager client unbundles package metainformation relevant to a domain specific application and according to an industrial package information schema. A dependency tracking module identifies dependencies of a current package to other packages and generates a dependency tree that includes the name and version of each dependent package. An upgrade analyzer compares dependency trees to identify dependency incompatibilities as conflicting packages based on inconsistencies and performs an automated resolution of the dependency incompatibilities.
