Selecting and effectively using a computer aided software engineering tool

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5611931
Software engineering is a science by which user requirements are translated into a quality software product. Computer Aided Software Engineering (CASE) is the scientific application of a set of tools and methods to a software which results in high-quality, defect-free, and maintainable software products. The Computer Systems Engineering (CSE) group of Separations Technology at the Savannah River Site has successfully used CASE tools to produce high-quality, reliable, and maintainable software products. This paper details the selection process CSE used to acquire a commonly available CASE product and how the CSE group effectively used this CASE tool to consistently produce quality software. 9 refs.
