2 Methodology of choice Description Analysis and Design Facility VisualAge Pacbase offers methodological openness and supports a variety of methodologies including Unified Modeling Language (UML), industry-specific frameworks such as the IBM Information Framework (IFW), and can be customized to integrate company-specific methodologies. Coverage of analysis and design needs VisualAge Pacbase offers powerful information management capabilities to help capitalize and enrich corporate AD know-how. It ensures the flexibility that analysis and design teams want, and provides consistency and validity of specifications, reusability, and quality of information throughout the application development life cycle. Pacdesign is the VisualAge Pacbase analysis and design component for supporting the YSM, Merise, SSADM, and OMT methodologies. Pacdesign is also available in Bank/Finance edition for supporting IFW models. UML support is offered via the bridge with Rational Rose environment. Rational Rose provides extensive support for requirements, analysis, and design activity. The UML models defined in Rational Rose are converted into VisualAge Pacbase design models. These design models populate the VisualAge Pacbase central repository and can be directly reused during the production phases. e-business Build Facility VisualAge Pacbase offers complete support for industrializing the production of client/server and e-business applications. It provides: Model-driven development A single Java-based Developer Workbench to cover server and client development, and middleware management A central repository to energize all phases of development including project management and quality assurance VisualAge Pacbase includes VisualAge for Java technology and takes advantage of up-to-date technologies such as Java applets, servlets, and EJBs. In addition, VisualAge Pacbase remains open to third-party tools and provides a COM module to address client development with a COM-compliant tool. Simplified development VisualAge Pacbase offers a high level of expression that closely models actual business processes so that developers can focus on solving business issues rather than technical issues. VisualAge Pacbase provides an information model dedicated to e-business needs and integrated in the development cycle. This e-business information model gives a clear dispatching and structuring of the data necessary for development and formalizes the description of application components. It allows development teams to focus on functional characteristics and ensures quality applications produced automatically by the VisualAge Pacbase generators. VisualAge Pacbase implements a visual programming approach in order to improve productivity and ease learning. The Developer Workbench takes advantage of the SmartGuides technology to enable users to interact with their tool through a guided and contextual dialogue. Integration of existing assets VisualAge Pacbase ensures a smooth transition to e-business so that organizations continue to get a good return on investments in existing systems while gradually introducing new technologies to development teams. Organizations have the freedom to leverage applications components and skills. Existing COBOL programs can be integrated with the new architectures for producing new server-based e-business systems. In addition, development teams can use the more technical developers for building JavaBeans and other developers for assembling these components. Consistent development VisualAge Pacbase provides the consistency required to achieve high-quality applications and to improve development productivity. VisualAge Pacbase generates a proxy object as a JavaBean or EJB to provide developers the view of the server they need. This proxy object facilitates client construction by enabling the direct access and use of data, services, and events available on the server. It improves development reliability by enabling automatic reuse of information defined in the central repository. It simplifies development by hiding complex mechanisms associated with client and server exchanges. All components are managed around the central VisualAge Pacbase repository and benefit from key advantages such as impact analysis capabilities. Each time you reuse an object throughout the life cycle of applications, including during maintenance, you are ensured of its quality. This efficient reuse of consistent objects is a vital element of application development industrialization. Ability to generate for multiple IBM and non-ibm platforms VisualAge Pacbase improves portability of applications due to independence from any specific environment.
