After all, DevOps disrupts the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) as we know it: The need to define the relationship between Operations and Development (as as the Capability Maturity Model Integration for Development (CMMI-DEV) or Here's an example to further illustrate the difference between these three. "SDLC is academically classified as Software Development life Cycle, the meaning of the...

The concept of process maturity proposes that a process has a lifecycle that is measured by the extent to which the process is explicitly defined, managed, measured, controlled and effective. A maturity model assumes that progress comes in stages, ultimately reaching an end goal. The supply chain maturity model is based upon concepts developed by Philip Crosby, who devised a maturity grid for t...

The basic purpose of an Enterprise Architecture project is creating integrity among different enterprise components, including processes, systems, technologies, and etc. While CMMI focuses on improving the process of an organization and covers necessary elements relating to one organization distinguished by different maturity levels referenced as level 1 through level 5. In our previous paper [...

Evaluating readiness of individual public agencies to execute specific e-Government programs and directives is a key ingredient for wider eGovernment deployment and success. This article describes how the eGovernment Maturity Model (eGov-MM) identifies specific areas in which public agencies should focus improvement efforts. eGov-MM is a capability maturity model, that identifies capability lev...

is one of the prime considerations of software industry. Engineering high quality software products is further influenced by several factors such as budget, schedule, resource constraints etc. A project manager is responsible for estimation and allocation of these resources in a project. Hence, role of project manager has a vital influence on success of the project. This research comprises of a...

The Capability Maturity Model for Software (CMM), developed by the Software Engineering Institute, and the ISO 9000 series of standards, developed by the International Standards Organization, share a common concern with quality and process management. The two are driven by similar concerns and intuitively correlated. The purpose of this report is to contrast the CMM and ISO 9001, showing both t...

Agile Methods are a widely applied and feasible alternative to Tayloristic (traditional) Methods for developing high-quality software on a limited schedule. Although Agile Methods are been adopted by various organizations, there still does not exist a well disseminated process maturity model that can satisfactorily guide the improvement and assess the status of agile processes. Currently, there...
