Abstract

Nowadays, software architecture of CASE (Computer Aided Software Engineering) environments is evolving from layered structure to bus structure. This bus structure can greatly simplify the interconnection structure among tools and facilitate the construction of distributed CASE environments. In this paper, from the viewpoint that tool integration facilities are separated from tool logic processing function, a pure model of ToolBus first is introduced, then its functional abstraction, internal structure, interface specifications and implementation approaches are explored, last a software prototype LambdaBus which verifies the validity to ToolBus model is implemented based on CORBA specifications.
