Synopsis:

This book provides a description and technical overview of the capability maturity model for software process management, along with guidelines for improving software process management overall. It is the sequel to Watts Humphrey's important work, Managing the Software Process. Featured are the process maturity framework; the key software practices that comprise the capability maturity model, how the model is used in practice; and the results some companies have achieved with it.

Weber, Bill Curtis, Mary Beth Chrissis "In every sense, the CMM represents the best thinking in the field today. this book is targeted at anyone involved in improving the software process, including members of assessment or evaluation teams, members of software engineering process groups, software managers, and software practitioners." From the Foreword by Watts Humphrey The Capability Maturity Model for Software (CMM) is a framework that demonstrates the key elements of an effective software process. The CMM describes an evolutionary improvement path for software development from an ad hoc, immature process to a mature, disciplined process, in a path laid out in five levels. When using the CMM, software professionals in government and industry can develop and improve their ability to identify, adopt, and use sound management and technical practices for delivering quality software on schedule and at a reasonable cost. This book provides a description and technical overview of the CMM, along with guidelines for improving software process management overall. It is a sequel to Watts Humphrey's important work, Managing the Software Process, in that it structures the maturity framework presented in that book more formally. Features: Compares the CMM with ISO 9001 Provides an overview of ISO's SPICE project, which is developing international standards for software process improvement and capability determination Presents a case study of IBM Houston's Space Shuttle project, which is frequently referred to as being at Level 5 0201546647B04062001 Please note the image in this listing is a stock photo and may not match the covers of the actual item.
