Abstract :
A CASE (computer-aided software engineering) system that was designed and developed for a local area network of high-performance workstations is described. The system increases group software productivity by providing reliable and efficient source code control and configuration management. It increases individual productivity by exploiting a network computing environment to build components of a system in parallel on many remote computers. Parallel building allows a system to be built in a small fraction of the time required on a single computer, dramatically reducing the duration of the compile/test/debug cycle
