This paper describes the current status of software engineering tool usage by the Japanese software industry based upon statistics obtained from several surveys conducted by the Japan Information Services Industry Association and related organizations. It also analyzes various social and technical factors behind these statistics. Practical application of various software engineering tools in Japan currently seems to remain at a very low level. Some concluding comments will be made suggesting directions for possible future improvements.
