[comp.software-eng] Looking CASE references

krubin@zodiac.ads.com (Kenny Rubin) (11/08/87)

I have a friend who is looking for references on the subject of 
CASE (Computer Aided Software Engineering). He is planing to do his 
undergraduate thesis on some aspect of CASE. If anyone knows of good
books or papers on the subject, ranging from theory to implementation, 
please let me know..

Thanx in advance..

Here are a few titles that serve as our CASE Bibles here:


		Structured Development for Real Time Systems
		Volume 1: Introduction & Tools
		by 	Paul Ward & Stephen Mellor

		Structured Development for Real Time Systems
		Volume 2: Essential Modeling Techniques
		by 	Paul Ward & Stephen Mellor

		Structured Development for Real Time Systems
		Volume 2: Implementation Modeling Techniques
		by 	Paul Ward & Stephen Mellor

		The Practical Guide to Structured Systems Design
		by	Meiler Page-Jones
		Foreword by	Ed Yourdon

In addition, I would suggest looking for other books by these authors, since
the are the acknowledged leaders in this field.

Cadre Technologies makes a computer tool called Teamwork that makes use
of these techniques on many platforms such as: Sun, VAX, PC, etc.  

Hope this information is helpful.

Would you mind getting your friend to compile a list from the replies, and
posting the whole shootin' match?  I am *really* interested in CASE too, and
would love to hear what people recommend.

Thanks...
