This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th European Workshop on Software Process Technology, EWSPT '96, held in Nancy, France, in October 1996.
The book presents 31 revised full papers carefully selected by the program committee. The papers are organized in sections on frameworks, architectures, evolution, metrics, descriptive approaches, organizational modelling and management, and an industrial experience session. Among the issues addressed are product modelling, configuration management, reuse, business process reengineering, groupware, coordination, and others.
