Abstract :
The authors define a software process model (SPM). The SPM is a model of evolution of the full set of documents produced in a software project. It is a general model for software development using any development approach, providing a framework for measuring, analyzing, and understanding the software development process. The authors use the model to characterize formally research in software measures and metrics. Data obtained from two software projects are presented in the SPM format.<>
