Tailoring Software Process Capability/Maturity Models for Telemedicine Systems

چکیده
Developing high-quality asynchronous store-and-forward telemedicine systems (ASFTSs) remains a challenge. However, there is no accepted understanding as to what are the important quality characteristics for this type of software system and/or what defines a mature software process for producing high-quality ASTFSs. Through adopting a multi-step research methodology, we define a quality model for ASFTSs indicating relevant quality characteristics and their priority for this specific type of software system based upon ISO/IEC 25010. We, then, propose an extended software process capability/maturity model based on ISO/IEC 15504 and ISO/IEC 12207 to meet these particular quality requirements. The resulting model can be used to both guide the development and the evaluation of such systems. We expect that the availability of such a customized model will facilitate the development of high-quality ASFTSs, reducing related risks and improving the quality of telemedicine services.

متن کاملUsing Security Patterns to Tailor Software Process
Secure software development processes can reduce the quantity of security errors and the vulnerabilities involved in software projects. A secure development process is composed by activities that propose the insertion of security requirements in all software development phases. These activities can be based on standards and/or security models such as SSE-CMM, ISO/IEC 27001, ISO/IEC 15408. The p...
متن کاملProposing a Process Reference Model for Telemedicine Systems
Telemedicine can be defined as the use of information technology, communication and medicine to provide medical cares in places where distance is a crucial matter. Although these systems are widespread used around the globe, there is still no quality standard defined to guide the development of these systems. In that way, a software process capability maturity model (SPCMM) would help not only ...
متن کاملAccessing Software Processes: Low Maturity or Sensible Practice
Software Process Improvement efforts rely heavily on the use of software capability maturity models. These models are used to identify problems in an organization’s software processes and point to, and prioritize, necessary improvements. Using models for this purpose will, however, automatically turn our attention to certain problems and issues and ignore others. In this paper we argue that the...
