CASE (Computer-Aided Systems/Software Engineering) is a technology that provides computer assistance for systems development methods. This user’s guide describes the computer assistance aspect of CASE, the features of the MetaEdit+ software. Accordingly, users of MetaEdit+ are expected to have some understanding of systems development methods in general, and of the particular methods they intend to use.

MetaEdit+ includes method help, but for a more complete understanding, please refer to the bibliographic references below on methods, how to use them, and what kinds of development situations they are suited for.
