Object-oriented database management system technology provides a set of capabilities which are required by computer integrated software engineering systems. The authors' objective is to take advantage of this technology and develop computer integrated software engineering systems that support complete user-defined life cycles with uniform interface and logically centralized database support. They have built tools to generate object-oriented databases that represent the syntax and some of the semantics of programs. These tools are being used to develop a software-maintenance and reverse-engineering system. The authors present an overview of their prototype system and tools.>
