The Systems Analysis Department at Miami University has a long history of educating software engineers who are in high demand by computing industries. The hardware and software currently being used in this educational process is state-of-the-practice technology, rather than state-of-the-art. This project involves 6 workstations and associated software to be connected via an Ethernet. The emphasis in this equipment is on (1) a visual approach to analysis, design, and programming; (2) automation of tasks; (3) the use of integrated tools; and (4) resource sharing. The computing industry has been faced with a "software crisis" in the past two decades in which the size and complexity of software has exceeded our ability to control. Quality has lagged, schedules have been delayed, and cost estimates have been overrun. The use of automated, more visual, integrated tools and better resource sharing holds much promise as a solution to this crisis. By introducing students to this technology, they can eventually help to improve the quality of software produced in industry.

迈阿密大学的系统分析系有着悠久的历史，教育通过计算行业需求量很高的软件工程师。当前在此教育过程中使用的硬件和软件是实践最新技术，而不是最先进的技术。该项目涉及将通过以太网连接的6个工作站和相关软件。该设备的重点是（1）一种视觉分析，设计和编程的方法； （2）任务自动化； （3）使用集成工具； （4）资源共享。在过去的二十年中，计算行业面临着“软件危机”，其中软件的规模和复杂性超出了我们的控制能力。质量滞后，时间表已延迟，成本估算已被超越。自动化，更多的视觉，集成工具和更好的资源共享的使用具有很大的希望，以解决这一危机。通过向学生介绍这项技术，他们最终可以帮助提高行业生产的软件质量。
