Traditional software development projects for process-oriented organizations are time consuming and do not always guarantee the fulfillment of the functional requirements of the client organization, and thus the quality of the resulting software product. To reduce the time spent for developing software and improve its quality, we adopt the inclusion of automation in some parts of the software development proces...
This manuscript proposes a guiding methodology to obtain a software system that supports the execution of the business processes existing within an organization. The methodology promotes the usage of business process reference models and intends to reduce the implementation time of the software systems. The methodology assumes four distinct phases and several abstraction levels and is applicable both when devel...
Currently, the development of organizational information systems remains a complex task. Final software product quality often does not match expectations. The existence of organizational models is the first step to reduce complexity in the development of information systems. Within the life cycle of an information system, activities are still very dependent in quality, time, and costs on the human resource skil...
Several organizations are nowadays not particularly comfortable with their internal structuring based on a hierarchical arrangement (sub-divided in departments), where collaborators with a limited view of the overall organization perform their activities. Those organizations recognize the need to move to a model where multi-skilled teams run horizontal business processes that cross the organization, and impact ...
In this paper, a proposal of a generic framework for process-oriented software development organizations is presented. Additionally, the respective way of managing the process model, and the instantiation of their processes with the Rational Unified Process (RUP) disciplines, whenever they are available, or with other kind of processes is suggested. The proposals made here were consolidated with experiences fro...
In this paper, based on a proposal of a reference framework for process-oriented software development organisations, we discuss some issues related to the usage of the RUP’s disciplines as instantiations of those processes. The proposals made in this paper were consolidated based on experiences from real projects. The respective lessons learnt from two of those projects are reported.
O processo de desenvolvimento de sistemas informáticos deve ser orientado ao cliente. Sistemas que utilizam tecnologia de ponta, desenvolvidos e concluídos em tempo útil e dentro do orçamento disponível, podem não ter uma utilização plena, ou mesmo não serem usados, se, entre outros, os requisitos do cliente não forem devidamente captados e transformados em aplicações. Modelos semi-formais e visuais de informaç...
