Software Case Tools Overview

CASE stands for Computer Aided Software Engineering. It means, development and


maintenance of software projects with help of various automated software tools.

Computer aided software engineering (CASE) is the implementation of computer facilitated


tools and methods in software development. CASE is used to ensure a high-quality and defect-
free software.

CASE ensures a check-pointed and disciplined approach and helps designers, developers,
testers, managers and others to see the project milestones during development.  
CASE can also help as a warehouse for documents related to projects, like business plans,
requirements and design specifications.

One of the major advantages of using CASE is the delivery of the final product, which is more
likely to meet real-world requirements as it ensures that customers remain part of the process.  
CASE illustrates a wide set of labor-saving tools that are used in software development. It
generates a framework for organizing projects and to be helpful in enhancing productivity.
There was more interest in the concept of CASE tools years ago, but less so today, as the tools
have morphed into different functions, often in reaction to software developer needs. The
concept of CASE also received a heavy dose of criticism after its release. 
CASE Tools: 

The essential idea of CASE tools is that in-built programs can help to analyze developing
systems in order to enhance quality and provide better outcomes. Throughout the 1990, CASE
tool became part of the software lexicon, and big companies like IBM were using these kinds
of tools to help create software. 

Various tools are incorporated in CASE and are called CASE tools, which are used to support
different stages and milestones in a software development life cycle.  

CASE tools are set of software application programs, which are used to automate SDLC
activities. CASE tools are used by software project managers, analysts and engineers to develop
software system.
There are number of CASE tools available to simplify various stages of Software Development
Life Cycle such as Analysis tools, Design tools, Project management tools, Database
Management tools, Documentation tools are to name a few.
Use of CASE tools accelerates the development of project to produce desired result and helps to
uncover flaws before moving ahead with next stage in software development.

Data Modeling: Business Growth


Data modeling is a technique used to define and organize your business processes. It allows
you to create a visual description of your business by analyzing, understanding and clarifying
your data requirements and how they underpin your business processes.

Data models are technical in nature but also designed to be simple, and (for the most part)
visual in nature. This means they hit the sweet spot between hard to digest tech-speak and easy
to understand everyday terminology

Why data modeling is a vital part of any data strategy

So, we’ve looked at a definition of data modeling, but a definition only tells part of the story.

To really understand what data modeling is, you have to dig down and look at the specific
benefits it delivers. Naturally, these benefits are only achieved when you deploy data models
effectively, and when business and IT teams work in harmony.

Here are the four main benefits of effective data modeling


1. Cut costs and achieve faster time to value

2. Understand and improve business processes

3. Reduce complexity and risk

4. Improved collaboration

Three Steps of Data Models

1. Conceptual Model

2. Logical Model

3. Physical Model

1. Conceptual Model

In this step, data requirements are defined in the structure of the model, which present the
business concepts to the business stakeholders.

2. Logical Model

The logical model documents the structure of the data and prepares it to implement in the
database. It can include all types of data that need to be captured by a business analyst.

3. Physical Model

Then the physical model organizes the data with the help of the database management system. A
database administrator defines it in tables, accounts access, performance, and CRUD system.

Organizational Model

An organizational model describes the objectives and the structure of an organization in terms


of roles, norms, relations between roles and interactions between roles. The description does not
include descriptions of participants that with fulfill the roles.

Data Modeling Techniques

Following are some techniques you can use to create a useful and result-driven data Model.
 Know Your Business and What Is Required to Improve It
 Data Visualizations

 Staring Your Data Modeling Right

 Make Your Data Easier to Understand

 Concentrate on the Data You Need

 Keep a Regular Check on Your Data

 Avoid Misleading
