Résumé
Computer-aided software engineering (CASE) was a domain of software tools used to design and implement applications. CASE tools were similar to and were partly inspired by Computer-Aided Design (CAD) tools used for designing hardware products. CASE tools were intended to help develop high-quality, defect-free, and maintainable software. CASE software was often associated with methods for the development of information systems together with automated tools that could be used in the software development process.P. Loucopoulos and V. Karakostas (1995). System Requirements Engineerinuality software which will perform effectively. The Information System Design and Optimization System (ISDOS) project, started in 1968 at the University of Michigan, initiated a great deal of interest in the whole concept of using computer systems to help analysts in the very difficult process of analysing requirements and developing systems. Several papers by Daniel Teichroew fired a whole generation of enthusiasts with the potential of automated systems development. His Problem Statement Language / Problem Statement Analyzer (PSL/PSA) tool was a CASE tool although it predated the term. Another major thread emerged as a logical extension to the data dictionary of a database. By extending the range of metadata held, the attributes of an application could be held within a dictionary and used at runtime. This "active dictionary" became the precursor to the more modern model-driven engineering capability. However, the active dictionary did not provide a graphical representation of any of the metadata. It was the linking of the concept of a dictionary holding analysts' metadata, as derived from the use of an integrated set of techniques, together with the graphical representation of such data that gave rise to the earlier versions of CASE. The next entrant into the market was Excelerator from Index Technology in Cambridge, Mass. While DesignAid ran on Convergent Technologies and later Burroughs Ngen networked microcomputers, Index launched Excelerator on the IBM PC/AT platform.

Software development process
In software engineering, a software development process is a process of planning and managing software development. It typically involves dividing software development work into smaller, parallel, or sequential steps or sub-processes to improve design and/or product management. It is also known as a software development life cycle (SDLC). The methodology may include the pre-definition of specific deliverables and artifacts that are created and completed by a project team to develop or maintain an application.
Dictionnaire des données
Un dictionnaire des données est une collection de métadonnées ou de données de référence nécessaire à la conception d'une base de données relationnelle. Il revêt une importance stratégique particulière, car il est le vocabulaire commun de l'organisation. Il décrit des données aussi importantes que les clients, les nomenclatures de produits et de services, les annuaires, etc. Il est souvent représenté par un tableau à quatre colonnes contenant le nom, le code et le type de donnée ainsi que des commentaires.
Langage de programmation de quatrième génération
Les langages de programmation de quatrième génération (L4G) (4GL en anglais) sont un type de langage de programmation apparu en 1980, proche des langues naturelles, qui permet d'écrire plus de choses avec moins de lignes de programmes et moins d'erreurs. Ces langages permettent de décrire certaines opérations de manière non procédurale et permettent d'obtenir rapidement des résultats à partir de courts programmes. Il n'existe pas de distinction formelle entre les et générations de langages de programmation.
