ISBN: 0471738492 ISBN-13: 9780471738497 Publisher: Wiley-IEEE Computer Society PR OUR PRICE: $149.10 Product Type: Paperback Published: October 2005 Annotation: An essential guide to CMMI(R)-SW documentation The CMMI(R)-SW, a compendium of recommended requirements for software engineering, promotes the continuous evolution of improved software and system engineering processes. Organizations seeking to satisfy documentation requirements of CMMI(R)-SW Levels 2 and 3 will find invaluable support in this clear and systematic text. Beginning with a comprehensive summary of CMMI(R)-SW, the authors present detailed guidance on the implementation of these industry standards, including how to define and train a process team, set goals, fix timelines, baseline and implement processes, and perform gap analysis and self-auditing procedures. In addition, they describe common procedural pitfalls and how to avoid them. Practical Support for CMMI(R)-SW Software Project Documentation offers: Detailed organizational policy examples An integrated set of over twenty deployable document templates Examples of over fifty common work products required in support of assessment activities A companion to Jumpstart CMM(R)/CMMI(R) Software Process Improvement, this in-depth reference will expedite the design and development of process and product documentation. Even organizations not pursuing CMMI(R) accreditation will learn how the application of IEEE standards can facilitate the development of sound software engineering practices. |

Publisher Description: Software process definition, documentation, and improvement should be an integral part of every software engineering organization. This book addresses the specific documentation requirements in support of the CMMI-SW(R) by providing detailed documentation guidance in the form of:
This book provides a set of IEEE Software Engineering Standards-based templates that support the documentation required for all activities associated with software development projects. The goal is to provide practical support for individuals responsible for the development and documentation of software processes and procedures. The objective is to present the reader with an integrated set of documents that support the requirements of the CMMI-SW(R) Levels 2 and 3. This book is meant to both complement and extend the information provided in Jumpstart CMM(R)/CMMI(R) Software Process Improvement Using IEEE Software Engineering Standards. Jumpstart provides a detailed mapping of both the CMM(R) and the CMMI-SW(R) to the IEEE standards set and provides a logical basis for the material contained within this text. It is hoped that this book will provide specific support for organizations pursuing software process definition and improvement. For organizations that do not wish to pursue CMMI(R) accreditation, this document will show how the application of IEEE Standards can facilitate the development of sound software engineering practices. It also comes with a CD-Rom. |
