1. A computer-readable, non-transitory medium storing a change impact research support program for supporting a configuration management change that is a change to configuration management information including a plurality of constituent elements, the change impact research support program causing a computer to execute a process, the process comprising:

  • extracting, based on a combination of already-modified constituent elements that are constituent elements that are already modified in a present configuration management change that is a configuration management change that is presently performed whenever the constituent element of the configuration management information is modified, already-processed changes similar to the present configuration management change from an impact relationship information storage unit that stores therein a combination of constituent elements modified in an already-processed change for each already-processed change that is a configuration management change performed on the configuration management information in past times;

    computing, for each constituent element that is not yet modified in the present configuration management change, an impact that is a cumulative total of already-processed changes in which the constituent element is modified among the already-processed changes extracted at the extracting; and

    selecting a constituent element that is a modification candidate by using the computed impact.
