I am looking into different CASE Tools available in the market for PC as well as mainframe environment. Does anybody already have a compiled list of such tools? If you are familiar with some CASE tool, could you mail me a description of it, when is it most useful ? etc. If there is enough interest then I will mail a summery on the net. Is there any book/paper which does a comparative study of the existing tools? sanjay

This response is posted because the e-mail reply bounced. In the 4/89 issue of IEEE Computer, there is a review of a book called "CASE: Using Software Development Tools" that the reviewer feels "offers a highly readable but somewhat shallow overview of the most popular commercial CASE tools [10] and their methodologies...It targets practicing software engineers and managers who need a quick overview of the subject but are not willing to thoroughly investigate it." It's by Alan S. Fisher (John Wiley, NY, 1988, 287 pp, $24.95). In that same issue, under "New Literature" is a blurb for "CASE Analyst Workbenches: A Detailed Product Evaluation". It is said to "provide guidelines on choosing, implementing, and using analyst workbenches to maximum advantage. It reviews 66 workbenches and includes tables highlighting the available features and conventions." It's by Rosemary Rock-Evans (2 volumes, 780 pp, #550).
