I'd like to summarize netland experience with CASE ( computer assisted software engineering ). I'm most interested in methods, environments and procedures in general, but I will collect references to specific products as well. Please mail direct to me, and I'll post the results. ( Deja vu ? No - this is my second attempt. No more Xmas postings for me.) uucp: macg@alberta Innately analog: (403)432-3978 ean: macg@pembina.alberta.cdn disclaimer: I'm saving all my opinions for my thesis.

> >I'd like to summarize netland experience with CASE ( computer assisted ^^^ I have always wondered at the use of this term. [P. note - this is not a slander/cricticism of mike's use of the term - so hold your flames]. CASE - Computer Aided Software Engineering Software Engineering - Tools & techniques that aid in better use of COmputers. The use of COmputer AIded seems to be overkill. So, what do we call people who did SE (Software Engineering) without the aid of computers and do SE with Computers now? Ex-CUSE - Ex Computer unaided software engineer:-) Excuse Renu [Yeah! hold the falmes and excuse me]. > >uucp: macg@alberta Innately analog: (403)432-3978 --------------------- Renukanthan Raman ARPA:ram@sun.com Sun Microsystems UUCP:{ucbvax,seismo,hplabs}!sun!ram M/S 5-40, 2500 Garcia Avenue, Mt.

A better definition of Software Engineering might be "tools & techniques for the design of computer programs". It should be obvious that one can do program design without ever touching a computer. -- Frank Adams ihnp4!philabs!pwa-b!mmintl!franka Ashton-Tate 52 Oakland Ave North E. Hartford, CT 06108
