Abstract
Integrated Development Environments (ides) are presented as a unified set of information system development concepts, techniques, and computer-aided tools. An ide consists of both a complete and unified development methodology and set of computer aids that support use of the methodology. The need for ides and their characteristics are reviewed. The plexsys-84 ide is reviewed in relation to these needs and characteristics. Techniques and tools which extend the initial work are placed within the original plexsys-84 framework and are described in some detail.Keywords
