Analysis of the Structure and Content of a Measurement Base Aiming at Statistical Control of Software Processes
Abstract
Achieving the high maturity, characterized at MR-MPS levels A and B and at CMMI levels 4 and 5, includes the statistical process control implementation, which only can be carried out if there are measures and data suitable to this context. However, many organizations which start the high maturity practices have to retard the statistical process control implementation because their measures repositories are unsuitable. This paper presents some results obtained from the analysis of the measures repository of a software organization, aiming the statistical process control future implementation.
Keywords:
