Abstract

The PCTE project is specifying, designing and implementing a host structure for Software Engineering Environments. The host structure is designed to run on powerful, bitmap screen terminals connected to a local network. It features an Object Management System based on a Binary Entity-Relationship model that manages a database that is transparently distributed over the workstations connected to the network. Migration to this new hosting structure is facilitated by compatibility at the executable file level with Unix System V*.This paper examines how the OMS corresponds to the requirements for Software Engineering databases.
