These concepts are intended to facilitate communications and to provide a framework for further definitions. The definitions focus on essential concepts; however, they do not represent a comprehensive glossary of common software process terms. Following an initial overview, the basic process concepts which underlie the definitions are outlined. The definitions are grouped in four sets: a framework for process definition, an engineering of process, an enactment of process, and process properties. The use of these concepts in several domains is illustrated. Some observations on the definition process are offered.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":262032,"journal":{"name":"[1993] Proceedings of the Second International Conference on the Software Process-Continuous Software Process Improvement","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126405507","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, they introduce the concept of activity, which allows the process designer to create and hierarchically aggregate fragments of process specifications. They then provide an execution model for activities and propose different alternatives for activity execution. They discuss the impact that the activity concept has on other important problems, such as incremental definition and evolution of large process models.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":262032,"journal":{"name":"[1993] Proceedings of the Second International Conference on the Software Process-Continuous Software Process Improvement","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126483026","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
