Towards a Maturity Model for Software Product Evaluations
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper is about a model that describes the maturity of software products and their evaluation. The model is called the SCOPE Maturity Model (SMM). It is based on the assumption that different evaluation levels can be defined for software products. The model provides acquirers and users as well as producers of software a clear overview of the characteristics of product evaluation on a specific level. The maturity model is a ‘vehicle’ for improving software product quality in a company and reflecting this in the form of evaluation. Moving from one step to the next in this maturity model offers significant added value to software product quality.
