In this chapter, the development and evolution of Web Applications is viewed from an engineering perspective that relies on and accommodates the knowledge inherent in patterns. It proposes an approach in the direction of building a foundation for pattern-oriented Web Engineering. For that, a methodology for pattern-oriented Web Engineering, namely POWEM, is described. The steps of POWEM include selection of a suitable development process model, construction of a semiotic quality model, namely PoQ, and selection and mapping of suitable patterns to quality attributes in PoQ. To support decision making and to place POWEM in context, the feasibility issues involved in each step are discussed. For the sake of is illustration, the use of patterns during the design phase of a Web Application are highlighted. Finally, some directions for future research, including those for Web Engineering education and Social Web Applications, are given.

Agriculture is a sector that today demands even greater efficiency; thus, it relies extensively on the use of precision agriculture technologies: IoT systems, mobile applications, and other digitalization technologies. Experience from a large-scale EU-funded project with a consortium made up of several software companies shows that software companies have a different and unequal knowledge/understanding of agricultural processes and the use of precision agriculture in agricultural processes. This finding coupled with what is known about the standard process model for IT governance (COBIT) triggered the idea of a reference standard process model for agriculture (RSPMA), which we present in this paper. We applied the Delphi technique to assess the RSPMA and evaluate its potential implementation in the area of agriculture. A panel of 20 members from Slovenia, Romania, Croatia, and Serbia was established for the study. The majority of RSPMA elements were identified as appropriate for the use in agriculture by the panel. The study results show that RSPMA is suitable for use in this field.

Software engineering is an engineering approach for software development. It is a discipline whose aim is the production of fault-free, delivered on-time and within budget software that satisfies the user's needs. Software engineering principles need to be followed to ensure a successful software development project. Within organizations that are involved in software development, the challenge is to select the appropriate process model for the software project. The objective of this chapter is to determine the factors which influence the process model selection. This chapter presents an automated framework for selection of process model using fuzzy-based rule engine and to bring more accuracy for choice of process model, J-48 decision tree was used considering factors as inputs. The user has to give characteristic value of the prioritized factor as input and on the basis of the rules, model is anticipated. The developed framework will be profitable for project managers, experts and venture pioneers in software companies.

Purpose: Our purpose to write this paper is to analyze how VRIO mediates the relationship between transformational leadership and project performance by examining the direct and mediated relationships on project performance outcomes. This study combined the two dynamic concepts: project management and strategic management with the support of both literatures. Design/methodology/approach: The resource-based view is operationalized to analyze the effect of project management assets and characteristics to gain a competitive edge in the industry and market as whole. The parallel mediation has been analyzed applying VRIO framework between transformational leadership and project performance, moreover its impact on firm-based performance is supported by the literature. Finding: Transformational leadership scientifically predicts project performance. Results demonstrated two mediations to be accepted (Rare resources and Valuable Resources) however, both got rejected in the Pakistani context. Research Limitations: The sample size considered for our study was only 256 and data were gathered from comparatively small software companies due to the fact that software companies in Islamabad and Rawalpindi are small comparatively in India or USA. Practical Implication: The research contributions are quite interesting; these would be followed by the transformational leaders in software industry to attain competitive edge in market using project assets characteristics. Originality/value: A useful combination of transformational leadership and resource-based view theory is used to reach project potential and improvements to sustain in competition.

After years of development, software process management has become a mature system that contains a lot of management practices and models, in which is the most well-known CMM process model. However it only provides process improvement guidance from macro perspective rather than micro perspective that containing clearly specific knowledge and skills required for the individual. PSP is designed for individual software engineers, and provides necessary and strong support for CMM implementation. Its methodology has become more and more mature and been applied widely. From the perspective of software quality management, this paper makes a systematic overview of PSP including its developing route, framework, application and so on , it also provides suggestions and measures for software companies to implement PSP.

Scrum is a widely known agile software process model specifically designed for guiding non- technical activities in software development. This process has been formally defined in EPF and adopted by several software companies around the world. But having a process definition does not necessarily mean that it is well specified. We have developed AVISPA, a tool for localizing error patterns in software process models specified with EPF. In this paper, we analyze the public community specification of Scrum using AVISPA and we report our findings.

A rationale for the application of a stage process model for the language-disordered child is presented. The major behaviors of the communicative system (pragmatic-semantic-syntactic-phonological) are summarized and organized in stages from pre-linguistic to the adult level. The article provides clinicians with guidelines, based on complexity, for the content and sequencing of communicative behaviors to be used in planning remedial programs.
