....operating system set of services included with every hardware platform. The model has been used to map (e.g. describe and contrast) the functionality of various products or standard in order to determine how the functionality they provide compares to the functionality present in the model [Brown et al. 1992] [Zelkowitz 1993] It is the object of this paper to extend this concept as a way to define certain environment properties, as given in Section 4. In what follows, we use the classification of services in the PSE reference model as a means to characterize the functionality of a software ....

....integration. These include platform, presentation, data, control and process integration [Was90] TN92] The focus of our work is on the latter three, the former being in the realm of user interface and systems design. A more detailed description of the aspects we are considering is included in [BEM90] 4.1 EXISTING MODELS AND METHODS OF TOOL INTEGRATION One approach to tool integration is integrate the methods that the tools are supporting [KSH93] Thus, the functionality of two, or more, methods is incorporated into a single tool in an ad hoc manner. This reduces the cohesion of the ....
....A control integration mechanism to enable tool function accessibility, inter tool communication and execution threads. This is concerned with notification of events that happen within the context of a tool and access to the functionality offered by other tools in the environment. As suggested in [BEM90] integration can be simply a common understanding, between all the tools in the environment, of rules governing the formation of data structures in the environment, or it can be extended to include a common definition of the semantics of those structures. The former approach removes the need for ....

Software Development Environments to Support Model Consistency - Veraart, Wright (1994) (2 citations) (Correct)
....that the solution to the problem of model consistency is to integrate tools with respect to the commonality between the models they manipulate. The concept of tool integration is not new; research into its means and mechanisms has been described in a number of papers, books and journals, eg [BEM90] [TN92] KSH93] in the context of creating of toolsets. Rather than to just consider tool integration as a means to an end, our work seeks to identify some of the reasons that tool integration is important, in terms of the needs of the users of an environment, and to propose an integration ....
....is important, in terms of the needs of the users of an environment, and to propose an integration mechanism that meets those needs. 3.1 METHOD MODEL TOOL INTEGRATION In the context of development environments there are a number of levels of tool integration. These are described in detail in [BEM90] but can be simply stated as carrier, lexical, syntactic, semantic and method levels. The technical aspects relate to the ways in which information is recorded, shared and transferred between tools. Our particular interest lies in the levels of semantic and method integration. In the former, there ....

Use of an Environment Classification Model - Marvin Zelkowitz (1993) (Correct)
....include tools like editors, desk top publishers, electronic mail and related services. 3 SUPPORT Evaluation of environments relative to a reference model has been termed a mapping. Various modern integrated environments have been compared to various versions of the NIST ECMA framework model [1] in order to determine how well each system meets the implied functionality of the framework model. Applying such a mapping to an older system, built before the current generation of concepts and jargon, should provide additional data as to the effectiveness of these models in describing systems, ....
