I m trying to figure out the correct use of these two terms. A method is a disciplined process for generating a set of models that describe various aspects of a software system under development, using some well-defined notation.
Methods differ from processes in that they are disciplined.
A development process on the other hand, is not required to be structured. If it was structured, it would be potentially repeatable and therefore potentially methodical. To put this into context, hacking is a software development process, but it is not a method nor a methodology. Methods, on the other hand, are processes - i.e. disciplined, structured ones.
