Author: doc.ic.ac.uk Published: 1st Nov 2005 Visited: 480 times
The laws of software evolution were not widely accepted as relevant to software engineering practice but over the years they have gradually become recognized as providing useful inputs to understanding of the software process. Based on this and on the results of the recent FEAST/1 and current FEAST/2 research projects, this paper develops and presents over fifty rules for application in software system process planning, management and implementation, suggesting tools to be developed to support the application.
