Abstract :
Technical and managerial complexity increasingly overwhelm project managers. To rein in that complexity, the authors propose PM-Net, a model that captures the concurrent, iterative, and evolutionary nature of software development. It adopts the basic concepts of Petri nets, graphical models of information flow, with extensions to represent both decisions and artifacts
