Abstract
As other chapters in this volume demonstrate, Leon Osterweil has made critical contributions to software analysis and testing. That stream of contributions began with his work in the DAVE project, which produced a static data flow analysis tool capable of analyzing FORTRAN programs. What I am sure Lee did not recognize at the time was that this work also launched him on a path to making critical contributions in environment architectures, inconsistency management, and integration technologies. These contributions arose from his work with Toolpack, Odin, the Arcadia project, and their recent successors. This chapter traces some of these key results, highlighting not only Lee’s contributions, but places where they remain to be fully exploited.
