Abstract

Over the years the process modelling community has proposed many languages, methods and tools for capturing, analysing and managing software processes. It is important that as new approaches are proposed they are evaluated in real software process modelling projects so that users can tell which approaches they should consider using and researchers can decide which approaches warrant more investigation and development. This paper presents an evaluation of the Spearmint approach to software process modelling in two software process modelling projects. The evaluation identifies strengths and weaknesses of the approach and possible areas for improvement.
