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.
