Overview:
Essence was adopted at the OMG March 2013 Technical Meeting as a response
to the FACESEM RFP, and is now being finalized by the corresponding
OMG Finalization Task Force.
Essence is also a first answer to the call for action of SEMAT:
"to refound software engineering based on a solid theory,
proven principles and best practices that: Include a kernel of
widely-agreed elements, extensible for specific uses". See
further description at
http://semat.org/?page_id=792.
In the morning Essence is presented in a tutorial form focusing
on concepts and principles with practical examples that will
demonstrate why Essence represents a paradigm shift in how we deal
with methods.
In the afternoon presentations will focus on practical
experiences with the Essence kernel based approach for an enterprise
method architecture and from practical experiences at Munich
Reassurance and Fujitsu. Further there will be presentations on the
potential for applying Essence for system engineering and INCOSE and
how to migrate methods and practices from SPEM to Essence. The final
part of the day will discuss how to apply Essence in new software
engineering projects, and a discussion on next steps related to
Essence in the SEMAT community.
