High Levels of Process Capability in CMMI and ISO/IEC 15504
نویسنده
چکیده
The recent release of CMMI V1.3 incorporates a number of changes to the model and framework; one of the more interesting is the decision to do away with Capability Levels 4 and 5 in the Continuous Representation, while retaining the high levels of Organizational Maturity. This paper examines some of the issues that may have driven this decision, and explores the opportunity provided for greater interaction between CMMI and ISO/IEC 15504.

Investigation Correspondence between CMMI-DEV and ISO/IEC 15504
CMMI and ISO/IEC 15504 are two main models for software process assessment and improvement. Both models have staged and continuous representations but these are different. Continuous representations of the models propose the different sets of processes (process areas). The differences of staged representations are even more essential. CMMI staged representation is based on the ideas of a classi...
متن کاملComparison of Maturity Levels in CMMI-DEV and ISO/IEC 15504
Although a classic staged maturity framework with 5 levels was introduced by W. S. Humphrey back in 1988, its basic ideas remain essentially unchanged and they are still employed in CMMI and other maturity models. ISO/IEC 15504, formerly known as SPICE, has promoted a continuous model for process capability assessment. Not long ago SPICE community recognized the benefits of a staged representat...

This article presents an industrial experience using the recent ISO/IEC 15504-7 Organizational Maturity Levels 1, 2 and 3 for an assessment. In this experience, these organizational maturity levels were defined for the continuous representation of the CMMI-DEV model. The assessment was an exploratory assessment for a process improvement cycle using PRO2PIWORK4A method. The assessment results ar...

In the current marketplace, there are maturity models, standards, and guidelines that can help an organization improve the way it does business. Software process assessment models, ISO/IEC 15504 and CMMI provide good strategy to assess organization’s software development capability. However these models are too heavy to apply small and medium enterprise organization. A ISO/IEC 15504(Software Pr...
متن کاملAutomated Software Engineering Process Assessment: Supporting Diverse Models using an Ontology
Current software engineering process assessment reference models rely primarily on manual acquisition of evidence of practices. This manually collected data is then correlated with expected model attributes to assess compliance. Such manual data acquisition is inefficient and error-prone, and any assessment feedback is temporally detached from the original context by months or years. Yet in ord...
