Creating and Assessing Processes for Object-Oriented and Component-Based Software Development

Funding or Partner Organisation: Australian Research Council (ARC - Other Funds)
Australian Research Council (ARC Discovery Projects)

Start year: 2002

Summary: This project is based on the principles of both theoretical and empirical software engineering. It focuses on the processes, technology and quality of software systems produced using component-based development (CBD) which is achieving substantial software re-use. Among the main objectives of this project are the creation of a unified CBD process metamodel and associated family of reference processes together with a closely linked CBD assessment methodology.''
