Improving software process improvement

IEEE Software, 2002
Two dichotomies characterize software process improvement efforts and approaches: disciplined versus creative work and procurer risks versus user satisfaction. Based on these perspectives, the authors introduce six theses to illuminate the problems of pursuing SPI.

A process for improving software testability

20th IEEE International Conference on Software Maintenance, 2004. Proceedings., 2004
The process of software engineering creates a unique problem for testability. MediServe Information Systems has developed a process for creating test harnesses in an automated testing environment. The process is allowing MediServe to build maintainable products that contain hooks for testability at the time of the products release.

Improving the Software Inspection Process

2005
In this paper we look at the results from three experiments.We discuss the results and combine them into advices for code inspection. The main observations are that 1) it is beneficial to use large inspection groups in order to have access to a large amount of diverse experience and knowledge, 2) hands-on experience is more important than general ...

Software Process Improvement Environment

2006
Today, in accordance with the bigger complexity of the system, the security concerns of a system have increased rapidly. One of the main concerns of the high security information system is the security evaluation to define the security function. Security evaluation of information security system is broadly used with respect to Common Criteria (CC) as ...

Improve by improving software process improvers

International Journal of Business Information Systems, 2006
With business environments constantly changing, organisations and individuals must execute and learn in parallel to ensure they can solve today's problems and plan for tomorrow's. This action research explores how action learning can improve Software Process Improvement (SPI) success by 'improving the improvers'.

TRIZ for software process improvement

Proceedings 26th Annual International Computer Software and Applications, 2003
TRIZ (theory of inventive problem solving) is a widely used problem solving method, most readily applicable to physical domains. To complement ongoing software process improvement activities, TRIZ and an associated software tool TechOptimizer were used to model the software development process, to assess whether this could provide new approaches on ...

The economics of software process improvement

Computer, 1996
Software process improvement is gaining momentum throughout the software industry. Many cities now have nonprofit SPIN (Software Process Improvement Network) groups. In a visible sign that process improvement is now a mainstream technology, SPIN's national conference in Boston last spring drew several thousand attendees.
