Principles of CASE Tool Integration

This book will address the increasing acitivity within the software engineering community for automated support in the software development process. Computer Aided Software Engineering tools support the software development process with the expectation of more predictable, less expensive, easier to manage and higher quality software. The authors integrate these tools into the overall software life cycle with emphasis on the following factors: scale-size and complexity, lack of maturity=limited expertise, diversity=many classes of users, technology base=extended operating system.
