Workflow Management in Software Engineering Projects
نویسنده
چکیده
Large software engineering projects require computer support for collaborative development work. An efficient management of the flow of work items between different people or different groups of people is an important prerequisite for a successful software engineering project. Workflow management in a software engineering project must include planning and modelling of development activities, resource allocation, monitoring and control of activities, and support of collaborative work.

Towards Dynamic Knowledge Support in Software Engineering Processes
Software development projects have historically been challenged with respect to producing a quality product. To some extent, this can be attributed to the complex, dynamic, and highly intellectual process of creating software. While efforts have been made to support both process execution and knowledge management with automated systems in software engineering (SE), the effective dissemination o...
متن کاملExploring the Dynamic Costs of Process-aware Information Systems through Simulation
Introducing process-aware information systems (PAIS) in enterprises (e.g., workflow management systems, case handling systems) is associated with high costs. Though cost evaluation has received considerable attention in software engineering for many years, it is difficult to apply existing evaluation approaches to PAIS. This difficulty particularly stems from the inability of these techniques t...
متن کاملTool Support for Dynamic Development Processes
Development processes in engineering disciplines are highly dynamic. Since development projects cannot be planned completely in advance, the process to be executed changes at run time. We present a process management system which seamlessly integrates planning and enactment. The system manages processes at the project management level, but goes beyond the functionality of project management sys...
متن کاملProposal for Editing Workflows in a Distributed Software Development Environment
In distributed software development projects the different parties involved can be coordinated by the use of flexible workflow management systems (WfMS). Often the process cannot be defined completely in the beginning of a project or has to be adapted later on when conditions change. In this paper the handling of workflow change in the agent-oriented Potato system for distributed development wi...
متن کاملCOTS, Workflow, and Software Process Management: An Exploration of Software Engineering Tool Development
This paper reports our initial investigations into the use of workflow technology for constructing a software process management tool. We examine some recent work undertaken in the fields of tool construction technologies and low cost workflow engines. Using an example Software Engineering Environment (PSEE) built on top of a commercial RDBMS, we demonstrate a mapping from the PSEE onto the WfM...
