Abstract
Process Centered Environments (PCEs) are the most recent generation of environments supporting the software engineering process. They aim to drive and assist developpers in the application of software development methods, by exploiting an explicit representation of the process. Several PCEs have been developped, both as research project and commercial products. This paper makes a point of research works and research challenges. It identifies 8 PCEs and a list of general requirements selected regarding actual software process technology needs along with some PCEs experiments results. A set of comparison criteria is then established and a list of open issues, derived from PCEs comparison, is presented.
