Implementing the Experience Factory concepts as a set of Experience Bases

This talk takes the Experience Factory concept, which was originally developed as organizational support for softwaredevelopment and generalizes it to organizational support for any aspect of a business, e.g., business practices. The
Experience Factory supports the evolution of processes and other forms of knowledge, based upon experiences within the
organization, and related knowledge gathered from outside the organization. It then discusses how you might design an
appropriate experience base for the particular set of organizational needs determined to be of importance. Specific examples
are given in developing experience bases for specific organizations and it discusses the Experience Management System
(EMS) currently being evolved and how it has been applied.
