Popis: The definition of customized software processes can lead to improve the quality of software products and increasing the productivity. The Software Process Line (SPrL) approach might be taken into consideration to improve the establishment of customized processes for a given domain. The specific processes are derived in a systematic way, based on the resolution of variabilities explicitly represented in process notations, such as SPEM. SPEM has an UML 2 profile used to model software process elements. Therefore, this paper presents the SMartySPEM approach, which extends the SPEM profile for representing variabilities in SPrLs taking into consideration the SMarty approach for variability management. SMartySPEM is composed of an UML profile (SMartySPEMProfile) for representing variabilities and guidelines that suggest how to identify variabilities in a SPrL. A SMartySPEM application example is presented in an excerpt of a SPrL designed based on the Unified Process.
