Distributed Application Development Environment for CICS/COBOL Applications

ACCOLADE is CCA's distributed application development environment, for rapid generation of well documented, readily maintainable CICS/COBOL applications, using a structured, controlled approach. This full-function COBOL Program Generator substantially increases the speed of development. And even after initial development and testing are complete, ACCOLADE adds value throughout the whole application life cycle, because its generated COBOL code is clearly structured and self-documented.

ACCOLADE applications are efficient and flexible. ACCOLADE's facilities are complete, providing a comprehensive and integrated set of productivity tools for design, development, testing, production, and maintenance.

ACCOLADE's Application Interface provides program logic for all standard activities, such as management of working storage, screen display, and PF key processing. Application-specific logic is isolated from the system-level interfaces. The Application Interface is written in COBOL and Assembler for maximum efficiency, and is delivered in source or object code form.
