Summary: Meta-CASE systems simplify the creation of CASE (Computer Aided System Engineering) systems. In this paper, we present a meta-CASE system that provides a web-based user interface and uses an Object-Relational DataBase System (ORDBMS) as its basis. The use of ORDBMSs allows us to integrate different parts of the system and simplify the creation of meta-CASE and CASE systems. ORDBMSs provide powerful query mechanism. The proposed system allows developers to use queries to evaluate and gradually improve artifacts and calculate values of software measures. We illustrate the use of the systems by using SimpleM modeling language and discuss the use of SQL in the context of queries about artifacts. We have created a prototype of the meta-CASE system by using PostgreSQL\(^{TM}\) ORDBMS and PHP scripting language.
