Assessment and Development of Software Engineering Tools

Abstract

The research began with the feasibility study and preliminary design of the Intelligent TestBed (ITB). The final technical report describes the motivation for, as well as the design and development of, the ITB. The goal of the ITB is to provide a capability to categorize and associate phases of the systems development life cycle with software methodologies and Computer Aided Software Engineering Tools. By automatically linking phases to tools, the ITB could benefit two different groups of users. First, researchers and developers can determine the availability, feasibility, and similarity of software tools that track systems development and maintenance. Second, managers and analysts, who may have no particular preferences for methods or tools, will be able to assimilate advancements in the several fields in addition to possessing the means to compare available products.
