The OPEN Process Specification describes a tailorable software development process (part of the OPEN methodological framework) that has been formulated to take account of the differing requirements of projects and provide a flexible framework into which project-specific factors may be incorporated. Here the reader will find a genuinely object-oriented, complete, detailed model of the whole process involved in developing both object-oriented and hybrid systems. The model may be used in conjunction with any object-oriented method or notation, such as Coad, Firesmith, Odell, SOMA, or UML. This book shows how to use the OPEN process to organize, plan and manage both large- and small-scale object-oriented software development projects. The framework for the OPEN process consists of interconnecting activities, which are represented as objects whose methods are the tasks needing to be accomplished. This model provides a strategy that enables professional software developers, project managers and students of software engineering to approach all kinds of software development projects and succeed in achieving timely delivery and high quality products.As well as an in-depth description of the important activities associated with a project, and comprehensive coverage of the kinds of tasks which need to be achieved for different projects, this book also contains: *an extensive reference section containing a detailed description of each tas *recommended techniques that provide support for accomplishing each tas *a summary of the COMN Light Notation *a foreword by Ed Yourdon
