Abstract

Tajalli and Medvidović classify software environments from standalone IDEs to SALEs tightly integrated with run-time monitoring and adaptation.

Tajalli, H., & Medvidović, N. (2013). Software: Practice and Experience, 44(3), 299–316. DOI

Key findings

  • Coupling spectrum — Environments range from zero run-time interaction to tightly integrated adaptive life-cycle suites.
  • iDARE — Reference architecture highlights quality tradeoffs (adaptability, robustness) for integrated stacks.

Application

Prefer one integrated workbench over shuttle between disconnected tools. IDE.
