IBM Software Group e-development Accelerators: The Problem § Internet requires shorter development cycles § At the same time, software 4 Has a broader audience 4 Must be higher quality § This is the “Software Development Paradox” Faster Time to Market Higher Quality
IBM Software Group e-development Accelerators: Objectives § Ensure customer success § Objective: Application Assembly 4 Jumpstart application development 4 Reduce reliance on hand-crafted artifacts 4 Achieve financially significant re-use § Promote asset-driven development 4 Automation for harvesting, managing, and assembling reusable assets 4 Advanced code and test generation from patterns or templates 4 Public and private marketplaces of standardized reusable assets
IBM Software Group Why now? Why Rational? § Maturing software engineering practices 4 Unified Modeling Language 4 Rational Unified Process 4 Capability Maturity Model (CMM) § Industry Standardization 4 Platforms (e. g. J 2 EE, . NET) 4 Protocols (TCP/IP, HTML, XML) 4 Application Frameworks (e. g. Weblogic Commerce Server, SAP, Web. Sphere) § Critical shortage of application developers § Why Rational?

IBM Software Group Reusable Software Asset - Definition What is a software asset? In general terms: a reusable software asset is a software artifact or a set of related artifacts that has been created or harvested with an explicit purpose of applying it repeatedly in subsequent, separate development efforts. Examples: EJB or COM Component with artifacts describing them e. g. Model, Test Scripts Architectural Mechanism – Using JDBC for Persistency Requirements Framework – Net Edition
IBM Software Group Reusable Software Asset - Structure Overview describes the problem that the asset solves as well as the intent and motivation. Classification part describes the assets using meta-tags. They are used to group, store, search and retrieve assets. The Usage part contains key information about how to apply the asset The Solution part contains the artifacts that comprise the solution An Asset is a set of artifacts. These artifacts have to be described and packaged for reuse into an Asset Package.

IBM Software Group How can we Support Reusable Assets Today? Rational Clear. Case Configuration Management of Actual Assets Client Requirements Documents Code Models Rational Clear. Ques t Visual Representation of Asset – represented using Rational Rose Web Publisher References Physical Asset CQ Reusable Asset. Published View Classification Database Capture Classification of Reusable Assets using Rational Clearquest
IBM Software Group Rational Clear. Quest: Asset Catalog Deploys Anywhere, for Any Size Team Captures and Tracks Assets Easily Adapts, to Work the Way You Work
IBM Software Group RAS Schema Rational Clear. Quest: Customization Overview Master DB RAS Schema A Schema B Customize Schema to store & track assets • Create New Record Type of Asset • Create New Fields for Asset • Create New Forms for Asset • Fields • Forms • User Admin Process Model • States • Actions • Hooks RAS Schema Instantiated RAS DB 1 Reusabl User DB e Assets
IBM Software Group Rational Clear. Quest: Add Custom Fields § Create new fields defining the Asset
IBM Software Group Rational Clear. Quest: Modify Forms § Create Forms to Capture the Asset Description
IBM Software Group Rational Clear. Quest: Customized as an Asset Catalog Reference to Web Published Visual Model
IBM Software Group Rational Clear. Quest: Customized as an Asset Catalog
IBM Software Group Rational Clear. Quest: Customized as an Asset Catalog Reference to Rational Clearcase – Asset Contents
IBM Software Group Rational Clear. Case: Manage Reusable Assets Stores and versions all assets Requirements and models Binaries and source code Requirements Models HTML files and templates Code Documents Tests Documents Test Scripts Rational Clear. Case is the underlying Repository for all Assets
IBM Software Group Rational Clear. Case: Capturing Asset Content & Usage Rational Clear. Case captures • Overview • Usage • Solution Rational Clearquest Captures Classificati on of Asset
IBM Software Group Rational Clear. Case: Capturing the Asset Structure
IBM Software Group Rational Rose: Web Published View of Asset
IBM Software Group Customization to Fit Your Environment The Reusable Asset Specification can be customized in the following areas: • Artifacts • Asset Categories • Asset Structure • Meta Tags • States and Values The required elements of an asset as declared in the specification cannot be removed
IBM Software Group Rational Clear. Quest: Extend Asset Support With Hooks § Hooks provide the capability to automate and enforce your process § Written in VBScript or Perl using Built-in Editor § Examples: 4 Add “Browse” button to web publisher reference – add a hook to launch referenced web published model 4 Similar hook to open up Rational Clear. Case view and browse the assets 4 Upon creation of Asset could add a hook to generate the directory structure required
IBM Software Group Creating the Asset Reference § Needs to be a lightweight process 4 Simple and quick forms 4 Use context menu of Clear. Case for data collection 4 Use Clear. Quest API to add record 4 Use Clear. Quest API to show record form when required
IBM Software Group The Original Requirements List § Support for a catalog or library of Assets 4 Browsing Capabilities – to find appropriate assets • Textual & Visual Descriptions of Assets 4 Multi-user support • Support for distributed teams 4 Configuration Management capabilities 4 Asset Traceability • • Support for Impact Analysis when changes required Provide Metrics on usefulness of assets § Facilities to register developer interest in components § Supporting environment to Utilize Assets 4 Needs to support a variety of assets
IBM Software Group Providing Support for Traceability § We need to provide traceability to the projects/systems that use these assets 4 Create record types for project/systems 4 Trace the assets to the systems that use them • • Provides support for Impact Analysis Give us the capability to provide metrics on usefulness of Assets § Facilities to register developer interest in components 4 Create Enhancement Request Record type 4 Use this to register enhancements requests for new or existing assets
IBM Software Group Why use Rational Suite? § Provides the capability to manage a variety of assets § Components § Frameworks § Architectural Mechanisms § Guidelines, white papers, requirement frameworks § Provides the capability to manage supporting artifacts § Requirements § Designs § Tests § Implementation § Provides the supporting environment to Utilize Assets on a Project
