Abstract

Large commercial and research establishments who attempt to reuse software to construct operable systems confront the problem of code management. The increasing availability and usage of Computer Aided Software Engineering, CASE, tools coupled with the production of highly reusable code modules induces the need for more sophisticated and versatile library management facilities. This paper describes how the entity relationship approach can be used to address the problem of library management for design, code, and program management libraries. This approach to library management is independent of software development methodologies, hence is capable of supporting object oriented and convential operator/operand system designs and implementations.
