Context

• Tools and Environments Operating Systems
• Small collections of stand-alone tools
• UNIX
• Editors, compilers, debuggers
• grep, find
• Did not provide real means of integrating tools,
  coordinating their executions, or automating
  common tasks
• Programming Support Environment (PSE)
• The first significant efforts in producing
  tightly integrated development environment
• Collections of tools that support coding
  activities
• Some support for task automation
• Support only one software engineering activity
  and its artifacts

4
Context

• Software Engineering Environments (SEE)
• Identification of the need for integrated support
  for software engineering activities motivation
• Integrated collections of tools that facilitate
  software engineering activities across the
  software lifecycle
• Traceability
• Process-centered Software Engineering Environment
  (PSEE)
• Hypothesis Software engineering process piece
  of software
• Need for semi-automated support for the software
  process
