Summary:
Computer icons, along with animation, sound and other multimedia features, can facilitate communications between clients, software engineers and managers. Icon-based Software Engineering Environment (IconSEE++), being developed at Florida Atlantic University, uses icons to convey concepts describing object-oriented software development projects, as well as to navigate to all technical and non-technical project documentation. IconSEE++ is composed of three layers. The Icon Generator, Manager and Repository form a part of the middle layer. This thesis includes a survey of visual development tools and their comparison to IconSEE++. For the Icon Generator, Manager and Repository, the thesis presents object-oriented analysis models in UML notation, identifies implementation issues and provides strategies to solve them. Numerous code segments illustrating proposed solutions have been developed.
