Traditionally, software management has focused primarily upon cost control.Today, with the emerging capabilities of computer aided software engineering (CASE)and corresponding changes in the development process, the opportunity exists to viewsoftware development as an activity that creates...

Measurement of software development productivity is needed in order to control software costs, but it isdiscouragingly labor-intensive and expensive. Computer aided software engineering (CASE) technologies --especially repository-based, integrated CASE -- have the potential to support the...

An examination of code reuse at a large financial institution yields insightsinto the process of code reuse. The software development environment -- basedon an integrated CASE system -- was designed to support code reuse, but at theend of its first two years we find that programmers are not...

This paper presents an empirical study of the strategic contributions of automated tellermachines (ATMs) to improving a bank branch's local deposit market share at the expense of itscompetitors. By extending previous models of deposit market share in branch banking to incorporateATM technology...

This paper presents a new approach for evaluating the quality ofmanagerial choices in information technology (IT) deployment. Theapproach involves measuring the extent to which deployment sitesperform in accordance with the firm's objectives, given theconstraints of their competitive...

This paper makes the business case for automating the collection ofsoftware metrics for gauging development performance in integratedcomputer aided software engineering (CASE) environments that arecharacterized by an object-oriented development methodology and acentralized repository. The...
