Abstract

There is an increasing use of model-driven engineering (MDE) in the industry. Despite the existence of research proposals for MDE-specific processes, the question arises whether and how the processes that are already used within a company can be reused, when MDE is introduced. In this position paper we report on a systematic literature review on the question how standard processes, such as SCRUM or the V-Model XT, can be combined with MDE. We come up with the observation that - although it is in some cases possible to reuse standard processes - the combination with MDE can also result in heavyweight changes to a process. Our goal is to draw attention to two arising research needs: the need to collect systematic knowledge about the influence of MDE on software processes and the need to provide guidance for the tailoring of processes based on the set of used MDE techniques.
