Abstract
The
Rational Unified Process (RUP) is a complete software-development process
framework that comes with several out-of-the-box instances. Processes derived
from RUP vary from lightweight addressing the needs of small projects with
short product cycles to more comprehensive processes addressing the broader
needs of large, possibly distributed, project teams. Projects of all types
and sizes have successfully used RUP. This white paper describes how to apply
RUP in a lightweight manner to small projects. We describe how to effectively
apply
eXtreme
Programming (XP) techniques within
the broader context of a complete project.
