Abstract :
The paper summarizes the role of a commercial CASE (computer aided system engineering) tool in the design of the Functional Description of the Battlespace (FDB). The CASE tool product was selected based on specific requirements of the project. It was used as the medium to contain and document the design in a language independent form. Products created included diagrams, reports, and schema definitions for both object oriented database management systems (ODBMS) and relational database management systems (RDBMS). Experience with the CASE tool demonstrated many benefits as well as some drawbacks to using such a tool
