Process Definition and Project Tracking in Model Driven Engineering

  • Conference paper

Part of the Lecture Notes in Computer Science book series (LNPSE,volume 4034)

Abstract

This paper presents a software process definition language that is targeted towards the development of software and systems using Model Driven Engineering methods. The dynamics of a process model are based on Petri Nets. This allows us to use a process definition model to plan and track the execution of actual projects. This new language can be integrated with existing approaches for software process modeling such as Software Process Engineering Metamodel.
