Abstract

The PCTE interfaces provide data-integration services. In a good Software Engineering Environment (SEE), however, more is needed: control integration to automatically start tools and share services. We report on our intermediate practical experience of adding control integration to PCTE. More precisely, we show how Broadcast Message Services can be layered on the PCTE platform thus forming a SEE framework that spans the tool integration dimensions.
