Obtaining an earned value includes storing a simulation version of a project baseline. The project baseline includes tasks that define a project associated with the project baseline. The simulation version is copied to create an operative version of the project baseline. The simulation version is augmented with an additional task such that the simulation version maintains separate baselines for the additional task and for pre-existing tasks. The additional task is mapped from the simulation version to the operative version such that the operative version incorporates the additional task and the pre-existing task into a single baseline. The earned value is obtained for the project using the operative version.

Earned value application

Systems and techniques to manage and represent development processes. In general, in one implementation, the technique includes a method for managing a software development process. The method includes providing a cookbook describing tasks in a framework of the development process and managing performance of the development process with the cookbook. A first task description identifies an activity in the development process, an input for performance of the activity, an output consequential of performance of the activity, and instructions for performance of the activity. Managing performance of the development process with the cookbook includes assigning activities in the development process to different participants in accordance with the activities identified in the task descriptions, exchanging information between participants in accordance with the inputs and outputs identified in the task descriptions, and instructing the participants in accordance with the instructions identified in the task descriptions.
