Presentation Abstract
Tailored process models help organizations to increase the quality of the finished software and make software development projects more predictable. This presentation discusses the value add to organizations in selecting process modeling environment to make process models easily enforceable for software development projects. As software development activities become more complex and distributed, there is a need for a enforceable process model that fully supports the behavioral aspect of software development activities as opposed to purely task-based. The Software Process Engineering Metamodel (SPEM), a new OMG specification, provides this capability while leveraging UML's popularity and innate expressiveness into the process engineering.
