Abstract
Mechanisms to build dynamic locations to reduce brittleness in a team environment are provided. A project includes resources, each resource is assigned a key. Each key is mapped to a current location for its corresponding resource. The keys and locations are maintained in an index. Locations for the resources can change as desired throughout the lifecycle of the project and as changes occur the index is updated. When references are made within the project to the resources, the references are translated to the keys, if necessary. The keys are then used for accessing the index and dynamically acquiring the current locations for the resources at the time the references are made.
