It describes the PCTE initiative by discussing the work being done on implementations of the PCTE interfaces, their formalisation and evolution. It goes on to�...

The Background. A major concern of software engineering is tlhe improvement of productivity. => automation of routine tasks, tool support to amplify.

The tutorial concentrates on the nature of the Portable Common Tool Environment (PCTE). It explains PCTE's importance and clarifies some of the terminology�...

May 26, 2005 � The PACT environment is an integrated software engineering environment being developed in the PACT project under the ESPRIT research programme.

Pact is built on the PCTE (Portable Common Tool. Environment) interfaces [11, 3]. These interfaces are currently the subject of a technical committee that is�...

The paper gives the results of a study of PCTE and of experiments carried out in getting an implementation of PCTE to work with the X Window System. These�...

One approach to the efficient integration of software engineering tool sets is to factor out those common features required by most tools for information.

ALF can be seen as a continuation of the PCTE and PACT projects. It is based on the PCTE-defined operating system for software engineering environments. The�...

PCfE replaces the file system of traditional operating systems by an object management system, which serves as a base for data integration.

A prototype implementation of PCTE was used in the context of the PACT project (another Esprit. Project) and a SEE was based on the PCTE 1.5 C bindings. The�...
