Product engineering refers to the various work products created during development.
Process engineering refers to the various measurements and analyses performed on the development process. A major continuing focus of CSDL for the past five years has been to better understand and improve our process and product engineering within our academic research development environment. This document presents an overview of our findings thus far. It emphasizes the software engineering techniques that we have successfully adopted within CSDL and used consistently, in most cases for several years. The final section of this document briefly presents our current and planned future experimental activities in software engineering.
