Abstract :
Software processes evolve as software too. The evolving software processes are adapted to accommodate the rapid progress and changes in software engineering practice. Software process simulation has to evolve as well in order to effectively investigate the evolving software processes. This article illustrates the evolution of software process and the resulting challenges to process simulation with two examples from experiences. From these come a list of recommendations for improving the state-of-the-practice of software process simulation.
