This book§focuses on the design, development, management, governance and application of§evolving software processes that are aligned with changing business objectives,§such as expansion to new domains or shifting to global production. In the§context of an evolving business world, it examines the complete software§process lifecycle, from the initial definition of a product to its systematic§improvement. In doing so, it addresses difficult problems, such as how to§implement processes in highly regulated domains or where to find a suitable§notation system for documenting processes, and provides essential insights and§tips to help readers manage process evolutions. And last not least, it provides§a wealth of examples and cases on how to deal with software evolution in§practice.§§Reflecting§these topics, the book is divided into three parts. Part 1 focuses on software§business transformation and addresses the questions of which process(es) to use§and adapt, and how to organize process improvement programs. Subsequently, Part§2 mainly addresses process modeling. Lastly, Part 3 collects concrete approaches,§experiences, and recommendations that can help to improve software processes,§with a particular focus on specific lifecycle phases.§§This book§is aimed at anyone interested in understanding and optimizing software development§tasks at their organization. While the experiences and ideas presented will be§useful for both those readers who are unfamiliar with software process§improvement and want to get an overview of the different aspects of the topic,§and for those who are experts with many years of experience, it particularly targets§the needs of researchers and Ph.D. students in the area of software and systems§engineering or information systems who study advanced topics concerning the organization§and management of (software development) projects and process improvements§projects.§
