Towards an Integration of Multiple Process Improvement Reference Models Based on Automated Concept Extraction
نویسندگان
چکیده
A variety of process improvement reference models (IRM) like CMMI, COBIT or ITIL support IT organizations. These reference models cover different domains such as IT development, IT Services or IT Governance but also share some similarities. There are organizations that address multiple domains and want to use different IRMs. As IRMs are described in different structures and are using different terminologies, we propose a tool based approach to extract IRMs’ concepts and to normalize the terminologies. Our solution enables to semi-automatically build an integrated database of IRMs’ concepts based on common meta-models and on a common terminology.

A Novel Method for Automated Estimation of Effective Parameters of Complex Auditory Brainstem Response: Adaptive Processing based on Correntropy Concept
Objectives: Automated Auditory Brainstem Responses (ABR) peak detection is a novel technique to facilitate the measurement of neural synchrony along the auditory pathway through the brainstem. Analyzing the location of the peaks in these signals and the time interval between them may be utilized either for analyzing the hearing process or detecting peripheral and central lesions in the human he...

A variety of reference models such as CMMI, COBIT or ITIL support IT organizations to improve their processes. These process improvement reference models (IRMs) cover different domains such as IT development, IT Services or IT Governance but also share some similarities. As there are organizations that address multiple domains and need to coordinate their processes in their improvement we prese...
متن کاملProduct Development Decision Support System Customer-Based
Quality Function Deployment (QFD) has been traditionally used as a planning tool primarily for product development and quality improvement. In this context, many people have used QFD for making decisions on how to prioritize critical product areas from a customer perspective. However, it is the position of the author that the QFD process can be viewed as a decision support system that would enc...
متن کاملProduction Constraints Modelling: A Tactical Review Approach
A constraint is a limitation or a restriction that poses a threat to the performance and efficiency of a system. This paper presented a tactical review approach to production constraints modeling. It discussed the theory of constraints (TOC) as a thinking process and continuous improvement strategy to curtail constraints in other to constantly increase the performance and efficiency of a system...
متن کاملTowards Automated Process Assessment in Software Engineering
When assessing software engineering processes, current reference models approaches typically rely on manual techniques for acquiring evidence of practices, which is then correlated with expected model attributes to assess compliance. This is costly, error-prone, and assessment feedback is infrequent and detached from the original context. Automated data acquisition could improve this situation,...
