Abstract

This paper describes an approach to Software Process Modeling that uses DRAGOON, an object-oriented programming language with Ada-like syntax, to capture Software Process Models. These models share the advantages of object-oriented software. They can be easily modified or extended. They allow the modeled process to be viewed at appropriate levels of abstraction. The use of a compilable programming language allows automated consistency checking and can help support automated enactment. DRAGOON is a particularly appropriate language for this task. It supports both full object-oriented programming, and concurrency.
