Here are the details about the presentation:

The application lifecycle management (ALM) packages for ClearQuest provide a solution framework for ensuring ALM best practices in your existing Rational® ClearQuest® change management system. The ClearQuest ALM packages provide you with a role-based process and security model that offers optimal performance with a collection of tightly integrated record types that create a foundation for managing software development projects. The solution can be applied to new or existing ClearQuest 7.0.1 schemas and will be included in ClearQuest 7.1.
