Rational SEED program, Ada9X and software engineering

Using CASE tools in an educational environment has always been constrained by the cost of industrial strength products. Exposing students to a CASE tool has meant that the budget has only allowed one such tool to be purchased. As object-oriented methods become the accepted state of the art, many tools of high quality and low cost have become available. The paper describes some software that has become available which allows software engineering environments and CASE tools to be demonstrated to students and perhaps used on group projects.<
