Abstract
A short description is given of software process models and the issues they address. An outline is given of the process steps involved in the spiral model, an evolving risk-driven approach that provides a framework for guiding the software process, and its application to a software project is shown. A summary is given of the primary advantages and implications involved in using the spiral model and the primary difficulties in using it at its current incomplete level of elaboration. >

Towards a Prototyping Approach in Systems Development

TL;DR: This paper addresses the question: How do the authors on the one hand, devise qualitatively new systems, and on the other hand, ensure their usability in a given practice, and compares four related approaches: Euture Workshops, Metaphorical Design, Cooperative Prototyping, and Or ganizational Games.

Analysis of modern IS security development approaches: towards the next generation of social and adaptable ISS methods

TL;DR: It is argued that the extant ISS methods reside on the first four generations, and future ISS methods should move towards the fifth generation, social and adaptable (empirically grounded) ISS methods.

An Adaptive Process Model to Support Product Development Project Management

TL;DR: Instead of rigidly dictating a specific project schedule a priori, a superset of activities and simple rules through which the activities can self-organize are provided, which provide a new basis for future studies of agile and adaptive processes.

Managing the development of large software systems: concepts and techniques

W. W. Royce
TL;DR: I have had various assignments during the past years, mostly concerned with the development of software packages for spacecraft mission planning, commanding and post-flight analysis, and have become prejudiced by these experiences.

Software processes are software too

TL;DR: The major theme of the meeting is the exploration of the importance of process as a vehicle for improving both the quality of software products and the way in which we develop and evolve them.
