[2]  Managing process diversity while improving your practices
Authors: Beck, M.
Reference: IEEE Software , Volume: 18 Issue: 3
Page(s): 21-27
Date/Year: May-June 2001
The author used to advocate process uniformity, warning against the management problems caused by diversity, but recent experiences have suggested more effective ways to address these problems. The article explores these alternative strategies, which include adopting a basic set of practices that are uniformly enforced across all development steps, using risk analysis as a technique for selecting targets for software process improvement, and planning for process diversity.

Page(s): 168-177
Date/Year: 2001
In this paper an empirical validation of one of the processes is presented: the Person to Role Allocation Process. In this process the allocation of persons to fulfill roles is made according to the capacities or behavioral competencies that the persons possess and those required by the roles in the CCISPM.

[6]  Program comprehension risks and opportunities in extreme programming

Page(s): 176-185
Date/Year: 2001
Investigates the relationship between reverse engineering and program comprehension on the one hand, and the software process on the other. To understand this relationship, we select one particular existing software process, extreme programming (XP), and study the role played in it by program comprehension and reverse engineering.

[8]  Taxonomy of process modeling languages
Authors: Zamli, K.Z.; Lee, P.A.
Reference: Computer Systems and Applications, ACS/IEEE International Conference on. 2001
Page(s): 435-437
Date/Year: 2001
While both PMLs and PSEEs are important, it is the characteristics of PMLs that are the focus of the article, which leads to a taxonomy different from that presented in other work primarily with the inclusion of important human dimension issues (e.g. awareness support) from computer supported cooperative work (CSCW).

[9]  Can you trust software capability evaluations?
Authors: O'Connell, E.; Saidian, H.
Reference: Computer , Volume: 33 Issue: 2
Page(s): 28-35
Date/Year: Feb. 2000
The authors reveal how certain practices distort results and waste time and money, through intentional contractor vagueness and detail, inappropriate sample projects, and staff coaching. They go on to suggest ways to improve the process.

[10]  Papers: Assessing the state of the software process development using the chaos theory
Authors: Peter Kokol , Vili Podgorelec , Ana Isabel Cardoso , Francis Dion
Reference: ACM SIGSOFT Software Engineering Notes, Volume 25 Issue 3
Page(s): 41-43
Date/Year: May 2000
It is the aim of this paper to present how we can use the chaos theory (in particular the Logistic map concept) to identify the state of the software development process.

[11]  Software processes: live and let die
Authors: Jakobsen, A.B.
Reference: IEEE Software , Volume: 17 Issue: 3
Page(s): 71-75
Date/Year: May-June 2000
What characterizes the optimal process for a software project? The author presents a reengineering case study to demonstrate that the answer lies in a holistic approach-one that carefully considers interactions between the tasks, processes and people involved with the project.

[12]  Software process : a roadmap
Authors: Alfonso Fuggetta
Reference: Proceedings of the conference on The future of Software engineering
Page(s): 25-34
Date/Year: May 2000
This paper aims to briefly present the history and achievements of software process research, some critical evaluation of the results produced so far, and possible directions for future work.

[13]  A culture-centered multilevel software process cycle model (poster session)
Authors: Silvia Teresita Acuña , Graciela Elisa Barchini , Mabel Sosa
Reference: Proceedings of the 22nd international conference on Software engineering
Page(s): 775
Date/Year: June 2000
In this paper a culture-centered multilevel software process cycle model (MPCM) is presented. This model interrelates the socio-cultural, scientific/technological and paradigmatological environments.

[14]  It is software process, stupid: next millennium software quality key
Authors: Raman, S.
Reference: IEEE Aerospace and Electronics Systems Magazine , Volume: 15 Issue: 6
Page(s): 33-37

Reference: IEEE Software , Volume: 17 Issue: 4
Page(s): 56-63
Date/Year: July-Aug. 2000
Examines the impact of software process diversity in one specific area: software reuse, which means that the work products developed elsewhere (in another project, group or company) are used again.

[16]  Process diversity in software development
Authors: Lindvall, M.; Rus, I.
Reference: IEEE Software , Volume: 17 Issue: 4
Page(s): 14-18
Date/Year: July-Aug. 2000
A [one size fits all] approach doesn’t work in software development. Processes work or are appropriate only under certain conditions. Does NASA follow the same software development process as a startup ecommerce company? The answer is obvious. Processes differ greatly throughout the industry, and this special issue looks at some aspects of this diversity.

[17]  Selecting a project's methodology
Authors: Cockburn, A.
Reference: IEEE Software , Volume: 17 Issue: 4
Page(s): 64-71
Date/Year: July-Aug. 2000
How do we determine the need for various software processes or methodologies, and what helps us choose the appropriate one for our project? To answer these questions, we need to get to the bottom of the controversy over methodologies and discover the dimensions along which they vary. This article describes a framework for methodology differentiation, principles for methodology selection, and project experiences using these ideas.

[18]  Facilitating process management: The technical writer as software process catalyst
Authors: Kendall V. Scott
Reference: Proceedings of IEEE professional communication society international professional communication conference and ACM special interest group on documentation conference on Technology & teamwork

Date/Year: September 2000
The emergence of a New Economy, fueled by business-to-business e-commerce and moves toward things like component-based development, and soon to be dominated by browser-based applications, is creating a shift in focus away from user documentation and towards what we might refer to as `systems documentation.` This term encompasses includes any kind of documentation that describes the technical aspects of a software system for people like systems analysts, modelers, and software engineers, rather than users.

[20]  The life cycle effects of software process improvement : a longitudinal analysis
Authors: Donald E. Harter , Mayuram S. Krishnan , Sandra A. Slaughter
Reference: Proceedings of the international conference on Information systems
Page(s): 346-351
Date/Year: December 2000
In this study, we investigate the inter-relationships between software process improvement, quality, cycle time, and effort. We perform a comprehensive analysis of the effect of software process improvement and software quality on all activities in the software development life cycle. We find that software process improvement leads to higher quality and that process improvement and quality are associated with reduced cycle time, development effort, and supporting activity effort (e.g., configuration management, quality assurance). We are in the process of examining the effect of process improvement and quality on post-deployment maintenance activities.
