Abstract

The hype on software process and software reuse as the capitalization on software as a valuable asset is encountering more and more appreciation. This paper presents an experience in modeling and extracting valuable process assets to build a framework in a small Italian firms specialized in telecommunications personalized solutions.The company has been modeled at first by means of interviews and then analyzing the components in terms of fours main entities.Then, domain analysis was performed. The results of the two phases gave birth to a set of organizational patterns of reuse in the firm that lead to a general organizational framework. The framework can then be refined in a more specific meta-pattern definition or a design framework.
