A Quick Guide to Information about Software Environments, Configuration Management, and CASE


This guide points you to key information and publications about Software Development Environments (SDE), Configuration Management (CM), and Computer Aided Software Engineering (CASE). Some documents were published by the SEI, while others were published externally and authored by SEI personnel. Though not all-inclusive, the guide presents a significant cross section of information sources from industry and government. Included are pointers to publications, such as technical reports, newsletters, directories, and magazines. Also referenced are consulting firms, databases, user's groups, and trade shows. Contact or order information is provided for all sources. Pricing information is given where available.
