A Design of Data Repository for Software Maintenance Tools
Eun-Man Choe · The Transactions of the Korea Information Processing Society · 1995
It has been commonly accepted for a while that a successful tool environment must provide for smooth interfaces between its tools. Recent integrated CASE environment must be-based on well-integrated data repository which supports a tightly coupled, consistent environment. For the maintenance tool, it requires a careful design of the maintenance chest's database. Information about a program exists in many different forms after analyses have been performed. It must be possible to associate and select objects for data repository from this information as necessary. This paper suggests a new integrated scheme for the data repository in building software maintenancec environment. The scheme provides many basic services, including storage and management of objects/entities and links/ relations; version and configuration control, query service, data interchange service.
