Thus, finding the most effective methodology for a particular project needs specific tailoring to that situation. Such a tailored software development methodology needs to take into account all the bits and pieces needed for an organization to develop software, including the software process, the input and output work products, the people involved, the languages used to describe requirements, design, code, and eventually also measures of success or failure. The authors have structured the book into three parts. Part I deals with all the basic concepts, terminology and overall ideas underpinning situational method engineering. As a summary of this part, they present a formal meta-model that enables readers to create their own quality methods and supporting tools. In Part II, they explain how to implement SME in practice, i.e., how to find method components and put them together and how to evaluate the resulting method. For illustration, they also include several industry case studies of customized or constructed processes, highlighting the impact that high-quality engineered methods can have on the success of an industrial software development. Finally, Part III summarizes some of the more recent and forward-looking ideas. This book presents the first summary of the state of the art for SME. For academics, it provides a comprehensive conceptual framework and discusses new research areas. For lecturers, thanks to its step-by-step explanations from basics to the customization and quality assessment of constructed methods, it serves as a solid basis for comprehensive courses on the topic. For industry methodologists, it offers a reference guide on features and technologies to consider when developing in-house software development methods or customising and adopting off-the-shelf ones. 606 $aSoftware engineering 606 $aManagement information systems 606 $aComputer science 606 $aSoftware Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I14029 606 $aManagement of Computing and Information Systems$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I24067 615 0$aSoftware engineering. 615 0$aManagement information systems. 615 0$aComputer science. 615 14$aSoftware Engineering. 615 24$aManagement of Computing and Information Systems. 676 $a004 676 $a005.1 676 $a005.74 700 $aHenderson-Sellers$b Brian$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$027976 702 $aRalyté$b Jolita$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aÅgerfalk$b Pär J$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aRossi$b Matti$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298983603321 996 $aSituational Method Engineering$91953997 997 $aUNINA
