Abstract

Management of development processes in different engineering disciplines is a challenging task. The AHEAD system addresses these challenges by providing an integrated environment for modeling and managing development processes. Products, activities, and resources are managed in an integrated way; furthermore, AHEAD supports evolving development processes by seamless interleaving of planning and execution. AHEAD is based on programmed graph transformations; tools are generated from a graph-based specification. Finally, a wide-spread object-oriented modeling language (UML) is employed for acquiring process knowledge from domain experts.
