Introduction

What is e-SEM?
e-SEM is a PSE development method based on the SEM process model (SEM-VM) as well as on the derived method instances stdSEM/ooSEM (incremental delivery model with prototyping life cycle approach).

The following pages will give you a brief overview:

  • Goals of e-SEM: In which projects should e-SEM be used?
  • How to use e-SEM: How do you use e-SEM in practice, how does e-SEM support project execution?
  • Life cycle approach: How does iterative-incremental development work in practice?
  • The e-SEM web: Where can I find which information, how is the e-SEM web structured?
  • Feedback: Where can I submit criticism or suggestions for improvement?

Why e-SEM? 
e-SEM describes an approach that supports "state-of-the-art, fast-moving" projects (typical, for example, of the e-business environment). e-SEM can be regarded as the methodical response to the e-hype witnessed during the past few years. It offers comprehensive support for achieving the best possible project success in the face of difficult conditions.
