TY - JOUR AU - Jesko, Dirk AB - The application of modern concepts and methods from informationtechnology gains impor-tance for the execution of product developmentprocesses. Presently, the execution of such processes is supported by differentspecialized software systems. A flexible company-wide use of such tools isachieved by their provision within specific development environments. A resultis the demand for an integration concept for heterogeneous software systemswhich also considers design documents and especially design processes. In thefirst part of this arti-cle we will present our approach for a Process-CenteredEngineering Environment. A central component within the environment isresponsible for the management of the design processes, i.e. modeling,enactment, etc. One necessary aspect that has to be realized by this componentis the tracing of process states. Statecharts provide a suitable basis for thespecification of these states even for complex processes. The second part ofthe article describes an adopted version of statecharts focusing on processes.Design processes are characterized by a certain unpredictability. Therefore,the environment has to provide means for changing processes at runtime. Thelast part of the article discusses this aspect based on anINSERT-operation.
