Are we ready for software process selection, tailoring, and composition?

Published:26 May 2014Publication History

ABSTRACT

Software projects are performed in different contexts and, thus, require a context-specific selection and adoption of adequate methods. The suitable selection and tailoring, however, still constitute a challenging task. For this, in this paper, we discuss several issues concerning process definition and adoption, and motivate more research regarding the improvement of evidence-based method selection and adoption for the respective context.
