Quantitative Management for the Requirements Development Process
Abstract
This paper describes guidelines for the implementation of software process quantitative management. The Requirements Development process was chosen as object of study and example of quantitative management due to its relevance. These guidelines have been developed based on bibliographical research and in the experience of the authors in implementation and evaluation of software processes. Our goal is that these guideline lead to an implementation that takes care of to organizations’ objectives, being adherent to expected results of the maturity models.
Keywords:
Quantitative Management, Requirements Development Process, Implementation Guidelines
