This paper motivates the need for explicit process models, surveys existing languages to model processes, discusses tools to support model usage, and proposes a research agenda for future software process research.
Abstract
Developing and maintaining software systems involves a variety of highly interrelated activities The discipline of software engineering studies processes of both product engineering and process engineering Product engineering aims at developing software products of high quality at reasonable cost Process engineering in contrast aims at choosing those product engineering processes appropriate for a given set of project goals and characteristics as well as improving the existing knowledge about those processes Explicit models of both types of processes help a software development organization to gain competitive advantage This paper motivates the need for explicit process models, surveys existing languages to model processes, discusses tools to support model usage, and proposes a research agenda for future software process research
