Title: Intermediation in Software Development (Proposal)

Abstract: Different models used in software engineering can be regarded as intermediation between requirements and final product. With a proper description of the actors involved, such as developer, models, tools, objectives, Networked Intermediation Model can be used to select the best development procedure dynamically. This is part of the research proposal.
