Applying software process modeling and improvement in academic setting

This work concerns the software process of a software engineering course project work. The quality manual contains a general process model, written in a formal software process modeling language that describes activities, tools, products, responsibilities, and measures. The quality manual serves as a basis for obtaining project specific plans, and for communicating the process to students, colleagues, and customers. The formal process model is the basis for analyzing and improving the process over the years, thus improving the quality of the provided education. The analysis of a given project run has revealed some problems and errors in the original model. This list of problems has been used as an action list to design a new process model. The new model will be exploited for the next years project runs
