Abstract

In this paper the main components of PROSYT, a System Engineering Environment (SEE), are presented. PROSYT is a frame system including a dialog component (PRODIA) and a database component (PRODAT). The integration of different tools, which cover special aspects of the system life-cycle and which were not developed for working together, is done via the exchange of data using the non standard database PRODAT. PRODIA supports the integration of tools under a common graphical dialogue interface. Some results of our prototype implementations — showing the correctness of the conception — are discussed. The paper closes with some statements about the necessity of a standard to achieve widely accepted and used SEEs.
