Competence Center Process Models - Projects

E-Energy
The world's electricity distribution networks undergo a dramatic change. In Germany, this change is facilitated by the E-Energy program. Information and communication technology (ICT) will play a central role in the energy network of the future. This requires technologies, architectural designs and procedures that are highly reliable, secure, interoperable and that follow accepted standards. The TU München is member of the E-Energy ancillary research group and is concerned with the evaluation and review of the role and function of ICT systems. As a member of E-Energy task forces, the TU München assists knowledge transfer within and beyond the E-Energy program. The focus of the work at TU München lies on the collection of proven procedures, modeling techniques and patterns for the electricity distribution domain. This shall eventually lead to a collection of best practices for the development of ICT systems in the context of E-Energy. The work at TU München relies on proven methods of Software & Systems Engineering - modeling of complex systems, analysis of architecture and requirements analysis in particular.

Integrated Mathematical Machine Modeling

Inkrea
Inkrea investigates the mathematical principles of elaboration steps for the incremental design of reactive systems as well as their implementation in the CASE tool AutoFocus.

MavTFS
Since 2004, the development process V-Modell XT is the officially recommended practice for all new IT projects at federal level in Germany. The German federal authority Bundesnetzagentur implements a customized version of the V-Modell XT according to that recommendation. This version was completed 2008 and was based on the V-Modell XT 1.2.x. To support internal development projects, the Bundesnetzagentur uses the Team Foundation Server (TFS) as a backed-system. With the PET-Framework, the TU München has developed a piece of software that allows the implementation of a customized V-Modell within TFS. In this project, the Bundesnetzagentur's V-Modell is adapted to the new meta-model version 1.3 and integrated into the Team Foundation Server with the help of the PET-Framework.

Network on Agile Methodologies Experience

Now
NOW stands for: Nutzung des Open-Source-Konzeptes in Wirtschaft und Industrie. Open source projects are characterized by the fact that some few developers design the system's architecture and many developers apply this architecture. Open source has some interesting examples of long term architecture evolution.

Process Enactment Tool Framework (PET)
The Process Enactment Tool Framework (PET) is the successor of the CollabXT project. With a flexible framework at it's heart, it allows the analysis of meta-model based development process models such as the German V-Modell XT or SPEM-based processes for the transformation into various working environments. Thus, process-aware templates for Team Foundation Server or web-based workbenches can be generated.

Tailorable Software Processes
The Systems Integration division at T-Systems Enterprise Services realizes large-scale software development projects for business customers. These projects use a family of software development processes. The core of this family is the SE Book for individual projects. It is based on a formal meta-model. The goal of this project is to provide the software development projects within T-Systems Enterprise Services with a tailored and customizable process model. This process model will be based on the existing SE Book that is already in use at T-Systems Enterprise Services. The process model shall scale so that it is applicable to small and large projects equally. Furthermore, the process shall provide facilities to seamlessly incorporate tools, description techniques and methods specific to the project type or customer.

VISEK
VISEK is the distributed German competence center for Software Engineering. VISEK's mission is to improve industrial software development practices. The VISEK consortium delivers Software Engineering expertise and provides a community for the exchange of experiences between researchers and practitioners in the field Software Engineering. As such VISEK is funded by the German ministry for research and education.

ProMis
Focus of ProMIS is the development of a concept for project management and product specification of software-intensive embedded systems. The concept targets especially small and middle sized companies and supports the successful planning and development of their projects. Core concepts are a generic development process and an iterative product specification process. The project emphasizes the early phases in the development process: requirements phase and design phase. The generic development process is based on the Quality Gate Concept. It is structured by six quality gates. Quality gates are measurement points for the evaluation of intermediate results. The product specification supports the abstraction and specification of the systems requirements. It is developed iteratively in cooperation with all relevant stakeholders. It is based on well-known, view based specification techniques and notations.
