IEEE Guide for CASE Tool Interconnections - Classification and Description

Abstract

Reaffirmed September 2007. This guide describes the scope of application and interrelationships for the members of the IEEE 1175 family of standards.It points the reader to the appropriate member standard that addresses issues involved in effectively integrating computing system tools into a productive engineering environment.

Scope

This guide describes the scope of application and interrelationships for the members of the IEEE 1175 family of standards, and it points the reader to the appropriate standards for clarifying issues involved in effectively integrating computing system tools into a productive engineering environment.

Purpose

The material collected into this standard spans many aspects of CASE tool interconnection and serves a variety of software engineering and administrative personnel in the software industry. This overview describes the requirements and problems of CASE tool interconnection and points the reader to the appropriate parts of the standard. The other parts of the standard provide assistance in specifying the protocol, syntax, and semantics issues to be addressed for effectively integrating CASE tools into an organization's processes.
