The previous chapter proposed the evolving artifact approach to operationalize knowledge construction in software development. This chapter presents a development project in which the evolving artifact approach was applied. Applied here means that the project attempted to follow the strategies presented in the previous chapter, and that the EVA Knowledge Construction Environment was used to provide computational support.

The chapter begins by describing the background of the EVAService project including the participants and how the project began. Then a narrative of the project history is given to provide a general feel for how the evolving artifact approach was applied. Then a series of detailed episodes from the EVAService project are presented, with screen images of some of the artifacts created during the project. Finally, two follow-on projects inspired by the EVAService project are briefly described.

In the next chapter, a discussion of this 6. Case Study - The EVAService Project study assesses opportunities and limitations of the evolving artifact approach as it was applied in the EVAService project.
