Claim Text:
1. A method of locating program code units stored on a digital data storage, the method comprising: defining, using a processor, a software module fragment by assigning a software module fragment label to a selected program code unit; creating, using the processor, a software module fragment list defining a software module, wherein the software module fragment list comprises a set of software module fragments; receiving, using the processor, a request to retrieve the selected program code unit of the defined software module from the digital data storage; converting, using the processor, the software module fragment list of the defined software module into a list of physical locations for resolving physical locations of corresponding program code units stored on the digital data storage using software module fragment labels; periodically determining a total number of software module fragment labels of a software module fragment; comparing a later total number of software module fragment labels of the software module fragment with an earlier total number of software module fragment labels of the software module fragment; and creating a notification in case of a difference between the later total number of software module fragment labels of the software module fragment and the earlier total number of software module fragment labels of the software module fragment.
