RE: [epf-dev] Quite confused on how to start a new proccess

Hi Fernando,

The answer depends on your situation, I think, and then there are several approaches.

A little advice for where to start: the main elements for creating your process description are the work products, tasks, roles. Identifying those is a key activity. The analysis work you can perform using EPF Composer of course. Various approaches are possible: describe processes and then identify your method content (including work products, tasks, roles). Or create method content and then create processes using the content. The separation of method content and processes is really powerful so if you have a good understanding of that concept that really helps.

HTH,

Onno

Subject: [epf-dev] Quite confused on how to start a new proccess

Greetings,

I'm quite new to EPF, but I have read all I found about it. Also I have read all about OpenUP, and watched the Recorded Sessions in the Getting started page. I'm looking forward to see the Process Authoring recording not yet available.

I would like to start a new process myself, to describe everything on it. I don't want to extend OpenUP, I want to design my own lifecycle, method content and so on...

Is the a guide or something else I can follow to start a new process from scratch? Or could someone please advice me on where should I start...?

Huge thanks in advance.

With Best Regards,

Fernando Libio.
