The software capability maturity model (SW-CMM) provides software organizations with guidance to how to gain control of their processes for developing and maintaining software and how to evolve toward a culture of software engineering and management excellence. Prof. J.N.Warfield has tried to identify and name each distinctive origin of one or more behaviorally related symptoms. Mindbugs (cognitive...
This paper presents a literature survey of action research (AR) studies published in nine major software engineering (SE) journals and three conference proceedings in the period 1993 to June 2009. A strict selection based on distinguishing SE from information systems research has identified 16 papers. Although they represent a very small fraction of the studies being conducted in SE, such papers concern...
In this paper we extend structured analysis for software product line development. After identifying features in the product line, we perform structured analysis for whole the product line and separate the produced artifacts into the common part and the variable part. The variable part is related to the feature to ease derivation of each product in the product line. Specification of an example product...
The self-adaptation of a software system is a complex process that depends on the system requirements, its operational state and environment, which may change during the system operational lifetime. Hence, the process for coordinating the self-adaptation should also be adaptable to changes that may occur during run-time. As a means for coordinating the self-adaptation process of software systems,...
The self-adaptation of software system is a complex process that depends on several factors that may change during the system operational lifetime. Hence, the process for coordinating the self-adaptation should also be adaptable to changes that may occur during run-time. As the means for coordinating the self-adaptation process of software systems, we are applying workflows that are dynamically generated...
Failure of a design to satisfy a system's requirements can result in schedule and cost overruns. When using current approaches, ensuring requirements are satisfied is often delayed until late in the development process during a cycle of testing and debugging. This paper introduces a more rigorous approach to design using Behavior Engineering, which has previously been applied primarily to requirements...
