Method Engineering

The Utrecht University Method Engineering final exam. The course is a mandatory course within the MBI program. Topics in the area of method engineering are: - Method description and meta-modeling - Method fragments, selection and assembly - Situational methods - Method frameworks, method comparison - Incremental methods - Knowledge infrastructures, meta-case, and tool support

Method Engineering is defined as the engineering discipline to design, construct, and adapt methods, techniques and tools for systems development. The primary focus of the course is to apply meta-modeling for the assembly and evaluation of methods; the adaption of concepts and rules for techniques; and the derivation of support tools for information systems development.

This summary covers all slides for the second (final) exam of Method Engineering. Guest lectures and lectures not covered by the exam are not included. The summary is a nice starting point for studying and contains some examples for formalization of methods and other important stuff. It does not contain a summary of the literature.

This summary covers the material for Exam 1. It is mostly a summary of the slides and some extra information from literature. It covers PDD notation (both meta-data and meta-process) extensively.
