An Approach of Reuse-based Software Process Improvement

This paper puts forward a novel approach of applying process reuse technology to implement software process improvement and control. A united framework of reuse-based software process improvement is proposed, which integrates the model-driven process improvement (Top-down) with measurement-driven process improvement (Bottom-up). The method of component-based software process instantiation and adaptation are presented. A new process component retrieval model based on tree-inclusion matching is given, which can greatly improve the recall while maintaining a high level precision.
