Abstract

The actual situation of small software organizations in software process definition and improvement is chaotic. Actually, deploying a software process improvement program within such organizations is very difficult, due to its high cost and small ROI percentage that could be obtained. RAMALA is a knowledge base, supported by a software tool called also RAMALA, that contains a software process framework, which is mainly based on the PMBOK process framework [9], detailed by software engineering experts using the best practices of the main software reference models like CMMI [11] and ISO 15504 [3], and enriched with process assets of the most outstanding software development methodologies. RAMALA is a platform where best practices of any software engineering process are recollected in a process definition form. Small software organizations can define, assess and improve their software processes economically using RAMALA.KeywordsSoftware ProcessProcess DefinitionSoftware Process ImprovementSoftware OrganizationSoftware Project ManagementThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
