Abstract :
This paper overviews software tools developed in Japan and briefly describes some selected ones. Japanese computer manufacturers´ software tools have evolved from mainframe to workstation/PC and to client/server environments, and from structured methods to object-oriented, from lower CASE to upper, and from forward engineering to re-engineering. A few CASE products by independent software vendors are well received. Componentware, re-engineering, and other technologies have been developed
