Abstract

In the SW-CMM level 3 the process concept is strongly introduced in the organization. During the institutionalization of the SW-CMM level 3, the architecture of processes that will serve as the foundation of all the key process areas definition. This architecture is essential for the organization of the processes and the success of the software improvement project. However, the majority of the organizations use a proprietary informal description in the definition of its processes, making it difficult the learning and implementation of them. This work shows a practical experience that uses the structure of RUP and UML for defining the architecture SW-CMM based processes.
