An e-Process Selection Model

A number of e-Processes (i.e. software processes for developing e-Commerce information systems) exist in industry. We presuppose that for a subclass of these their targeted quality is considered as a driving force of system development. The complexity of selecting a well-suited eProcess for a case at hand is thus increased as e-Process knowledge needs to be blended with system quality knowledge. We suggest an approach for selecting a best suited one out of a set of admissible e-Processes using the Analytic Hierarchy Process for knowledge blending and discuss how the data generated can be used for assuring the sensibility of the selection. We explain the AHP-based selection procedure, tradeoffand sensitivity analysis; briefly discuss a case study and the applicability of this approach.
