Computer Associates International Inc and Bachman Information Systems Inc have signed an agreement to conduct programmes in support of CA-Consensus, a new integrator tool that exploits the capabilities of the Bachman Model Driven Development tools and CA-Telon: by using CA-Consensus to transform specifications from the Bachman Model Driven Development tools into CA-Telon, clients have been able to evolve prototypes into applications much faster than before; Bachman clients can now extract and convert analysis and design objects to pass them into CA-Telon applications.
