vendor list).
BOCS is an object-oriented analysis and design CASE tool for developing
models of software & business systems and their underlying objects
(classes, parameterized classes, and instances of classes). BOCS is used
to create programming language independant specifications, then
automatically generate formatted documentation combining text and graphics
into popular publishing packages. BOCS also provides code generation for
C++ and Smalltalk. The traceability tool allows users to trace
requirements to design and code. BOCS runs on Microsoft Windows 3.1 (TM).

Bridgepoint by Project Technology, Inc. (see vendor list).
The BridgePoint tool suite is an integrated set of automation tools
specifically designed to support the Shlaer-Mellor Method of Object-
Oriented Analysis and Recursive Design through a detailed understanding of
the underlying formalism. The Model Builder allows easy capture of a
complete set of integrated Shlaer-Mellor OOA models. The Model Verifier
increases final system quality through simulated execution with model
debugging, completeness audits, model interpretation, controlled execution
rates and execution logging. The Generator reduces hand-coding and enables
design reuse through a pattern-based capture of system design and automatic
code generation from OOA models. - [text supplied by vendor]

Subject: Textbooks
Date: 6 Dec 1997
Originally collected by: hsre...@happy.colorado.edu (Hal Render)
The first 8 items are Hal Render's original list in his rough order of prefer
ence.
1. Software Engineering: The Production of Quality Software by Shari Pfleeger,
2nd Edition, Macmillan, 1991, ISBN 0-02-395115-X.
hsre...@happy.colorado.edu: Like #2, had the best explanations of what
I want to cover (different engineering lifecycles, methods, and tools).
2. Software Engineering: A Practitioner's Approach by Roger Pressman, 4th
Edition, McGraw-Hill, 1996, ISBN 0070521824
hsre...@happy.colorado.edu: (on 2nd edition): Like #1, had the best
explanations of what I want to cover (different engineering lifecycles,
methods, and tools).
ro...@iotek.uucp (Robb Swanson): The definitive book on the subject as far
as I'm concerned.
joh...@aplcen.apl.jhu.edu (Michelle Johnson): A good text book as well as
reference.
3. Software Systems Engineering by Andrew Sage and James D. Palmer.
hsre...@happy.colorado.edu: Like #1, had the best explanations of what
I want to cover (different engineering lifecycles, methods, and tools).
4. Fundamentals of Software Engineering by Ghezzi, Jayazeri and Mandrioli,
Prentice-Hall, 1991
hsre...@happy.colorado.edu: Like #5, good, and covered the issue of
specifications and verification better, but at the expense of other
aspects of the development process. I may use one of them for a graduate
course in software engineering.
na...@murphy.ICS.UCI.EDU (Nancy Leveson): Better than Sommerville, although
I like much of Sommerville.
5. Software Engineering with Abstractions by Valdis Berzins and Luqi, Addison
Wesley, 1991, 624 pages.
hsre...@happy.colorado.edu: Like #4, good, and covered the issue
of specifications and verification better, but at the expense of other
aspects of the development process. I may use one of them for a graduate
course in software engineering.
str...@cs.UMD.EDU (Pablo A. Straub): Both this and #9 have a good emphasis
on using formal techniques (i.e., doing engineering properly), but they
do not disregard informal methods; chapters are roughly organized around
the traditional lifecycle. #5 is longer and can be used in a two-term
sequence or for graduate students (it's possible to use it in a one-
term undergrad course by covering only part of the material). One thing I
like is that management and validation is given in all chapters, so that
these activities are integrated into the development process. Emphasizes
the use of formally specified abstractions. Uses the authors'
specification language (Spec) to develop a project in Ada.
6. Software Engineering by Ian Sommerville, Addison-Wesley, ISBN 0-201-17568-1
hsre...@happy.colorado.edu: Our current text, and my basic problem with it
is the vague way it covers many of the topics.
7. Software Engineering with Student Project Guidance by Barbara Mynatt
hsre...@happy.colorado.edu: Like #8, not bad, but fairly low-level and
doesn't cover many tools and techniques I consider valuable.
8. Software Engineering by Roger Jones
hsre...@happy.colorado.edu: Like #7, not bad, but fairly low-level and
doesn't cover many tools and techniques I consider valuable.
9. Software Engineering: Planning for Change by David Alex Lamb, Prentice-
Hall, 1988, 298 pages.
str...@cs.UMD.EDU (Pablo A. Straub): Both this and #5 have a good emphasis
on using formal techniques (i.e., doing engineering properly), but they
do not disregard informal methods; chapters are roughly organized around
the traditional lifecycle. #9 has the advantage of being shorter, yet
covering most relevant topics (lifecycle phases, formal specs, v&v,
configurations, management, etc.). It is very appropriate for an
undergrad course. It emphasizes that maintenance is a given and should
be taken into account (hence the title). Several specification
techniques are covered and used to develop a project in Pascal.
10. A Practical Handbook for Software Development by N.D. Birrell and M.A.
Ould, Cambridge University Press, 1985/88. ISBN 0-521-34792-0 (Paper
cover); ISBN 0-521-25462-0 (Hard cover).

12. Classic and Object-Oriented Software Engineering, 3rd Edition, by Stephen
R. Schach, Richard D. Irwin, Inc. (ISBN 0-256-18298-1), 1996. Advertised
as senior/first year graduate level, emphasizing the object-oriented
paradigm, metrics, CASE tools, testing, and maintenance.
13. Practical Software Engineering by Stephen R. Schach, Aksen Associates and
Richard D. Irwin Inc. (ISBN 0-256-11455-2), 1992. Advertised as sophomore
through senior level, emphasizing teams, maintenance, reuse, CASE tools.

They do regular reviews of most of the literature relevant to testing, s-eng,
and management. The books which are deemed useful by the reviewers are
purchased for reselling. Their catalog includes most of the literature that
I've come across on Software Testing. One of the items in the catalog is a
publication which the company puts together itself, The Testing Tools
Reference Guide, a sort of catalog of tools that have passed certain criteria,
(number of unit sold, at least three verifiable references, etc.) They charge
$145.00 for this guide. This includes two bi-annual updates. I've found the
guide very useful in tracking down vendors which specialize in CASE and
testing tools, although it seems to be heavily biased towards IBM mainframe
hardware and COBOL programming (shudder!). Each text is described and
summarized I'm sure SQE would be happy to send catalogs free of charge and
most of the prices seem reasonable. - Glenn Stowe gle...@odie.cs.mun.ca

This is a list of contact information for CASE tool vendors, maintained at the
Software Technology Laboratory, Department of Computing and Information
Science, Queen's University.
It was originally compiled by Scott Marcus and Theo Heavey, formerly
of the CASE Research group, Dept. of Computer Science, Florida
Atlantic University; under the Florida Industry High Technology
Council, and funded in part by the U.S. National Science Foundation.
After they lost their funding for this list in 1991, the only way
we've been able to keep it up to date is if people volunteer to tell
us what needs to change.
