The Software Upgrade Protocol (or SUP) System is a set of programs developed by Carnegie Mellon University in the 1980s (the home of the Andrew File System) that provide for collections of files to be maintained in identical versions across a number of machines.

It was originally developed under the Mach operating system, but implementations are provided with Debian & Ubuntu Linux distributions.
