Title: Tools and environments to improve the software process
Abstract: The paper provides a tutorial survey of tools and environments that support the production of software. Depending on their focus, tools and environments may be categorized as supporting programming-in-the-small (focus on support for individuals), programming-in-the-large (focus on product complexity) or programming-in-the-many (focus on team work and coordination). The paper uses these categories as a framework to describe how the various offers available or appearing on the CASE market assist in the production of software. The examples chosen cover a range of products, including: tightly integrated interactive programming tools, syntax-directed editors, tools for software configuration and version management, project databases (repositories), support for reuse, and software factories.
