Abstract
This paper presents an overview of the software tools used in the development of the microcode for Digital's VLSI VAX Microcomputers. The software tools effort consisted of five basic areas: assembly, simulation, verification, and statistical analysis.

Software development: what it is, what it should be, and how to get there
Developing large software systems is notoriously difficult and unpredictable. Software projects are often canceled, finish late and over budget, or yield low quality results --- setting software engineering apart from established engineering ...
Tools used in Global Software Engineering: A systematic mapping review
Context: This systematic mapping review is set in a Global Software Engineering (GSE) context, characterized by a highly distributed environment in which project team members work separately in different countries. This geographic separation creates ...
