Abstract
An effective process measurement framework is essential for any development project as it helps in arriving at an appropriate process improvement plan. Orthogonal Defect Classification (ODC) is one such framework. ODC has proved to be an effective framework for in-process measurement for software development processes. However, similar in-process measurement frameworks are rare in the context of industrial automation application development (AAD) processes. In this paper, we examine ODC from the perspective of AAD processes. Often, engineers involved in AAD are not well acquainted with the terminologies used in software development; hence, a set of example scenarios, from an AAD perspective, is identified for helping the engineers adopt the ODC framework. Through this work, improvement of design phase was identified as one of the process improvement actions. It was observed that there is a need to segregate design defect type, named 'Function' in ODC, as two defect types, Inconsistent Function' and 'Incomplete Function' in the ADD context.
