Software Process Technology

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th European Workshop on Software Process Technology, EWSPT 2000, held in Kaprun, Austria in February 2000 in conjunction with a meeting of the European ESPRIT IV Project for Process Instance Evolution (PIE).
The 21 revised papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 44 submissions. The book is organized in sections on methods, applications, process instance evolution, distributed processes and process modeling languages, and industrial experience.
