Extending MELBA+ CASE tool: A design artifact maintenance

A development of a design artifact maintenance model which is used to extend the MELBA+ CASE tool is described. The aim of such a model is to provide a framework for a design artifacts maintenance system. The model presented will underlie the MELBA+'s specification management system and work coherently with the tool. Providing such maintenance will provide an evolution history of design artifacts.
