Abstract
RUP is a complete software-development process framework that comes with several
out-of-the-box instances. Processes derived from RUP vary from lightweight-addressing
the needs of small projects with short product cycles-to more comprehensive
processes addressing the broader needs of large, possibly distributed, project
teams. Projects of all types and sizes have successfully used RUP. This white
paper describes how to apply RUP in a lightweight manner to small projects.
We describe how to effectively apply eXtreme Programming (XP) techniques within
the broader context of a complete project.
