Commitment of technical development data

A computer system for semi-automated development data management for control devices, comprising:

• a first central data store that is configured to store a development data model including a plurality of mutually related configuration data units, wherein each configuration data unit saves control commands and/or configuration parameters;
• a logic unit that is configured to provide a ruleset and identifying at least one initial configuration data unit, wherein the ruleset is useable to identify further configuration data units automatically on a basis of a relationship thereof with the initial configuration data unit;
• and
• an execution unit that is configured to apply the provided ruleset to the development data model in order to identify a subset of configuration data units within the development data model,
• wherein the first central data store is further configured to save the identified subset.
