Unified Basic Concepts for Process Capability Models

Abstract

Clenio.Salviano @ { cenpra.gov.br, gmail.com}, Adriana.Figueiredo @ cenpra.gov.br This article introduces a set of unified basic concepts for Process Capability Models for the unification, generali-zation and modeling of views of the structure and ele-ments of relevant models, with more similar granularity of its leaf elements. This set is part of an ongoing re-search effort to evolve the current Software (and Sys-tems) Process Improvement area towards a Model Dri-ven Process Capability Engineering for Knowledge Working Intensive Organizations. The set is imple-mented in Eclipse Ecore. Its evaluation includes the modeling of a unified view of CMMI-DEV and ISO/IEC 15504-5 models as relevant examples.
