Developers in modern and geographically distributed software companies need to collaborate because most of them are part of big development teams involved in large projects. CASE tools are commonly used to model software applications. However, most of them are not really prepared to support collaboration in the sense that they do not provide developers with a real collaborative environment. In this paper, we show the design and the implementation of a cooperative CASE tool called CE4WEB to support the edition of UML diagrams using the Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) paradigm. The tool described in this paper demonstrates the successful use of groupware tools and Software Engineering techniques. An evaluation method is also presented to show the validity of the proposal. © 2008 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
