Establishing a Methodology for Evaluation and Selecting Computer Aided Software Engineering Tools for a Defined Software Engineering Environment at the Air Force Institute of Technology School of Engineering

Abstract

This thesis identifies the software engineering environment (SEE) as it exists at the Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) School of Engineering. It also describes the software process model employed and the software development methods presented as part of the curriculum. Based on this information, criteria was established to evaluate computer aided software engineering (CASE) tools being considered for integration into the SEE. Each criterion was weighted to indicate its importance when selecting CASE tools. The criteria were further used to establish a methodology to be used to evaluate and select the CASE tools under consideration as well as future tool candidates.
