Opis

The software process is defined as the software engineering activities necessary to develop and maintain software products. Software process technology (SPT) deals with methods, formalisms and tools for supporting the software process. SPT has developed into a key technology in terms of its importance to software engineering environments, systems integration, co-operative working, and business process re-engineering.
