Software Process Modelling and Technology

Prominent contributors identify key research problems that shed light on convincing treatments of several fundamental concerns which have characterized the field to date. After introducing process-centred environments, the text proposes a conceptual framework for describing and evaluating evolving software processes. Discusses 10 projects the authors are involved with such as EPOS, MERLIN, ALF, ADELE-TEMPO, SPADE and PADM. Concludes with an assessment exercise which compares and appraises these projects.
