Abstract
This paper presents a prototype of an environment to support design and analysis of systems integration. It combines descriptive and analytical methods for the modeling and engineering of system integration. The environment comprises a specialized modeling language for representing a certain class of information, and a modeling methodology for representing, maintaining, and using the information so represented. The system analysis is performed in different levels to consider the static and dynamic aspects. An example of application is presented.
