Meriden, Connecticut, June 30, 1993 - Software Services and
Solutions, Inc., Announces CodeReviewer CASE Tool for NEXTSTEP

Software Services and Solutions, Inc., announced today shipment of
CodeReviewer, a graphical CASE tool for software analysis and
project tracking under NEXTSTEP.  CodeReviewer is currently
shipping at a per-seat cost of $495 (floating license), and
discounted site licenses are available.  CodeReviewer is available
now for NEXTSTEP on NeXT, 486, and Pentium, with ports to Motif
under other Unix systems to follow.

CodeReviewer helps track and manage changes to objects and other
code in multi-person development efforts.  CodeReviewer allows
project managers and developers to analyze versions of code
visually and formally, according to industry-standard software
metrics.  Visual analysis is supported for any type of code, while
software metrics can be computed, compared, and graphed for C, C++,
Objective-C, and YACC code.

Developers can use CodeReviewer to quickly appraise the state of
legacy code and the work that has been done on it in the past.  The
complexity analysis functions of CodeReviewer can point developers
to problem spots in code before they become bugs or maintenance
headaches.

CodeReviewer is fully integrated with NEXTSTEP, and its user
interface is immediately familiar to users of standard NEXTSTEP
applications.  CodeReviewer provides its analysis capabilities via
inter-application services, as well, to allow easy integration with
the current development environment.  CodeReviewer is capable of
reading projects created by SS&S's DRCS graphical revision control
system, as well as RCS directories.

"With CodeReviewer, project managers can gain control of changes to
code and avoid the morass of object incompatibilities that can
plague large object-oriented development efforts.  Development can
proceed with greater efficiency toward its goals with CodeReviewer.
Also, CodeReviewer can get developers up to speed on an unfamiliar
project in a fraction of the time it would take them without it."
said Robert L. Masterson, Vice President of Software Services and
Solutions, Inc.
