Measuring and Improving Technical and Social Suitability of Software Development Methodology

چکیده
Theoretical research in the field of software development methodologies (SDM) shows that the use of SDM should improve the efficiency of the development team and the quality of the developed product, nevertheless in practice not many software development organizations use SDM. In our paper we present a research that provides a theoretical background for measuring the SDM suitability on two dimensions: the SDM technical suitability for a given project (based on situational method engineering research) and its social suitability for a given development team (based on research of diffusion and adoption of software process innovations). We believe the model could be used by software development organizations to help them improve the value of their SDM.
