ITIL describes Capacity Management as one of ten ITSM processes within two books, Service Support and Service Delivery. The refresh of ITIL in Version 3 is likely to add a book on the introduction (i.e. implementation) of ITSM and one on its maintenance and improvement for “business as usual” processes. This paper describes the core approach in regular use by a number of sites in the pragmatic ...

The realization of the Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm relies on the implementation of systems of cooperative intelligent objects with key interoperability capabilities. One of these interoperability features concerns the cooperation among nodes towards a collaborative deployment of applications taking into account the available resources, such as electrical energy, memory, processing, and ob...

Periodically researchers examine the maturity of their research fields against a set of maturity criteria including the types of theories and methods used within the field. Keyword metadata was used to locate relevant research articles, which were manually read, summarised, and compared against field maturity criteria. This study used data extracted from three academic databases to examine the ...

Naval ship design can be understood to be a networked System-ofSystems (SoS) multidisciplinary process whereby a decision on one aspect of the design may have simultaneous, multiple order effects on other aspects of the design. Modern naval ship design should therefore consider the systems of interest as components subsumed by a holistic environment encompassing assets and capabilities inorgani...

Many organizations are using measurement as a means to improve their software development and maintenance processes. A reasonable consensus has been reached about the main success factors for measurement programs. However, no comprehensive approach has so far been published for the processes that need to be in place to ensure effective and efficient measurement. We propose a capability maturity...
