Abstract

This paper presents a practical experience on the use of the PASSI methodology in conjunction with a general framework development process, in obtaining a software framework for a virtual enterprise for passenger transportation. In addition to background information on each of the topics discussed, diverse PASSI artifacts complemented with notational elements drawn from UML-F are shown. In addition, the experience on the use of PASSI for framework development is provided.
