Computer-aided software engineering (CASE) programming tools apply engineering principles to the development and analysis of software, automating all phases of the software development process and tying it more closely to business strategic operations. The fourth volume in the "James Martin/McGraw-Hill Productivity Series" provides MIS professionals with an up-to-date overview of CASE technology and explains what implementing these automated tools can mean in terms of IS productivity and budgets. The book offers CASE tool product comparisons that weigh the technology and features of each in terms of their financial and productivity impact. To simplify the selection process, the automated tools reviewed in the book are divided into: information engineering for building a repository to create and maintain enterprise, data, and process models; products that support structured diagramming methods and enable use of at least the three basic diagramming types: data flow, control flow, and entity-relationship models; tools that provide structured development features for the systems analyst; and tools able to generate code using a COBOL generator.
