Abstract
This chapter focuses on the process-oriented model for software development using the PRINCE2 method, and it is divided into two primary parts. The first part offers a theoretical overview of project management, encompassing project definition, the definition and classification of project management, including the characteristics of both traditional and agile project management. Additionally, within this part, the process of software development and the key characteristics of PRINCE2 are presented, including the description of the processes defined by the mentioned method. The second part of the chapter is dedicated to integrating the software development process with the PRINCE2 processes. The constructed process-oriented model includes the nine phases with both the PRINCE2 processes and software development processes intertwined. Based on a critical review of the usefulness of the integration model, the advantages and disadvantages are presented. This well-structured model can significantly contribute to the successful management of software projects.

A Model for Motivation-Driven Assignment Design
A set of process steps defined by a model to direct the design and development of software. One such model is the classical waterfall model for software development that is primarily used in the development of large, life critical software. It is defined by a set of process steps that must be followed consisting of the development of a feasibility study, project plan, requirements specification, architecture design, detailed design, testing and maintenance phases. Other models exist for the design and development of software which is non-life critical and is highly market reactive and with higher priority requirements to meet delivery than long term maintenance; one such model is the Agile model for software development.
