The software development process and its related activities are described, implemented, analyzed, and changed by so-called Process Engineers. Process Engineers provide descriptions of software development processes to Process Performers. Because the processes usually are complex, support is needed for both Process Engineers and Process Performers. This paper reports the development and application of the process modeling environment Spearmint1. The architecture of Spearmint allows for a flexible definition and addition of views which are used for retrieving filtered and tailored presentations of the process models. One distinct view, namely the Electronic Process Guide used for dissemination of process information and guidance of Process Performers, is discussed in more detail. The Spearmint environment has been validated in industrial process engineering cases.
