Abstract

Second generation OO methods, with a few exceptions, contained no elements addressing process or project management. Third generation methods have been defined as those collaborative developments which also have a significant process element. Two examples are the rational unified process (RUP) and object-oriented process, environment and notation (OPEN). We examine RUP and OPEN from a project management viewpoint and evaluate whether either or both would meet acceptable standards in process support, project management guidelines and full lifecycle description for OO software development.
