Abstract

Tailoring is the mechanism of adapting a software process to the needs of a project. Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) provides a formal basis and tools infrastructure for automatic software process tailoring. However, the use of a MDE approach can become awkward for most process engineers, because it requires knowledge of MDE concepts and formalisms to implement the required models and tailoring transformations. Proposals trying to address this problem should balance the formality required by MDE and the usability needed by the users. This paper presents a model-based tool and its associated procedure that allow process engineers to automatically generate tailoring transformation rules using a graphical user-interface, obtaining the desired balance. The proposal is illustrated with a running example.
