Using OPEN's Deontic Matrices for E-Business

Method engineering (e.g. Brinkkemper et al., 1998; Ralyte and Rolland, 2001) focuses on how to create a method (here a software development method) that is highly suitable and “personalized” for a particular project or organization. Successful method engineering needs, as input, a repository of process elements (Chroust, 2000) that describes individual elements of the methodological approach; these include descriptions of activities, phases, tasks, techniques, roles, deliverables and so on. Given such a repository, sometimes called a process reference model (Henderson-Sellers et al., 2002), a number of various kinds of method or methodology can be constructed (Rupprecht et al.,2000; Henderson-Sellers, 2002a,b).
