Interpreting continuous-view capability models for higher levels of maturity

“…History of the SW-CMM: a staged capability model Capability models began with the SW-CMM, created by the SEI of Carnegie Mellon University. Version 1.0 was released in 1991 [Sheard, 1997a[Sheard, , 1997b. This was in response to problems in the software development industry [Gibbs, 1994] of late, poor-quality, and overrun software projects.…”

A computational framework for authoring and searching product design specifications

“…The landscape of the standards within the field of systems engineering includes not only process standards (such as IEA-632 and IEEE 15288) but also modeling standards [30]. The System Modeling Language (SysML) [31] is a language that provides a means to capture the system modeling information, which includes system requirements.…”

Adoption-Centric Software Maintenance Process Improvement via Information Integration

“…Some of the best-known process improvement frameworks are the Software Engineering Institute's Software CMM [11], ISO 15504 (SPICE) [10] and Trillium [1]. There are also many other process improvement frameworks, created by international standards bodies, the military, industry groups, and academic think tanks [13].…”
