• Abstract: Software development is a collaborative endeavor that requires individuals from different departments to work together in order to collectively develop a high-quality software system. In this context, people have begun to explore a method that leverages multi-agent systems based on LLMs to carry out software development. However, existing research tends to rigidly fix the software development process in a framework in code form, thus failing to dynamically adjust the software development process in real-time to meet the more flexible and variable software environment. In this paper, we propose a dynamic process generation framework, named ToP (Think-on-Process). The core idea of ToP is to leverage experiential knowledge (i.e., process models) to guide LLMs in generating software development processes (i.e., instances). These instances will guide multi-agent in software development and employ a compiler to provide feedback on the development outcomes. Subsequently, we utilize heuristic algorithms to filter the instances and apply process mining algorithms to derive process model. Finally, the process model will be converted into text, formatted as prompts, to enhance the ability of LLMs to generate other instances. Experiments demonstrate that our framework ToP significantly enhances the dynamic process generation capability of the GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 for five categories of software development tasks.
