Abstract
The CASE tools (Computer-Aided Software Engineering) aim to increase productivity during the software development process. However, their use by professionals is not as extensive as it could be. Among the reasons for the low adoption of this kind of tool are their complexity and learning curve. The main goal of this paper is to investigate user interaction metaphors for CASE tools based on the touch screen technology. It is expected that after this study the usability of these tools could be improved, minimizing the learning curve.
