Uml Process / Re: RUP

« on: August 05, 2004, 12:12:12 pm »

This is not the point however. As a consultant I am working for larger companies and forced to work with  RUP because they have dominance in the marketplace. I do not particularly favour XDE (rather than for instance EA), but RUP as a methodology is widely supported by a very large community. The point is I would rather have a good CASE tool that supports RUP than the current XDE/Rational tools.
Looking at it from the other side: If a tool does not support RUP it is simply excluded for use with many many companies.

Uml Process / RUP

Now that Rational and the RUP are widely used throughout industry, you probably are keeping a close watch.

Do you plan to follow the RUP guidelines on (as an example) supporting Business Modeling? In RUP as you know they are proposing a proprietary (different from EA) notation and method for supporting business processes: I.e. Business Use Cases, Business Actors, etc.

What is your opinion on this?
