Tailoring CMMI-DEV and RUP frameworks for ML2/3-compliance analysis
| Resumo: | The Capability Maturity Model Integration is a reference model composed of a set of guidelines that has to be implemented to attain a specific level of maturity in a particular set of process areas. This model aims to establish a set of "best practices" that should be used to ensure the software development with a high degree of quality. However, CMMI is not widely adopted by small businesses. Its adoption by these companies is somewhat complex since, in its guidelines, it merely indicates what to do, but it does not indicate how to implement each guideline. The Rational Unified Process is a software development methodology, which has as its main objective to avail its users the possibility of the software developing high-quality, within time and budget. This thesis aims to contribute a set of solutions that can be followed by small organizations, in order to implement a more streamlined process model that guarantees an increase in the quality of their products. This thesis adopts and validates a tailoring of the Rational Unified Process allowing it to be more easily implemented by small businesses or small software teams. This thesis presents a study of the dependencies between all the Capability Maturity Model Integration process areas, in order to enable the understanding of what the implementation impact is of a given process area in the other process areas. Finally, we present a mapping between the Capability Maturity Model Integration and the Rational Unified Process, which aims to help small software development teams in the implementation of the Maturity Level 2 (presented in more detail) and Maturity Level 3 of the Capability Maturity Model Integration. This mapping specifies what team members have to perform in order to implement most of the guidelines that the Capability Maturity Model Integration requires for each of their maturity levels. |
