应用个人软件程序改善软件开发流程

Applying Personal Software Process Tools to Software Development

软件流程一直是软件工程研究中一个重要的课题。对改善企业的软件流程而言,能力成熟度整合模式(CMMI)是现今一个被广泛应用的框架。CMMI的重要元素之一是在流程定义范畴中包含量测之量化管理基本概念。相对于组织流程改善的CMMI方法论,个人软件流程(PSP)是一个训练软件工程师改善个人流程的方法。它被广泛的使用于训练学生和企业的工程师。然而,在现有的文献中缺乏系统化的PSP训练成效评估机制。透过系统化文献整理确认PSP训练与软件工程连动价值为何,比较评估方法中,提出一种基于PSP量测基础之评估PSP影响分析模型,之后藉由实证性研究分析所收集的数据,并提出总结性报告。

Software processes have been recognized as an important subject of research since the early days of software engineering. In order to improve software process, it is important to apply Capability Maturity Model Integra-tion （CMMI）, a framework for improving an organization＇s process. One of its important elements is quantitative man- agement where process metrics is embraced in the definition of the process. Aside from the critical role of CMMI played in UML-based profile, Personal Software Process （PSP） can be considered as its equivalent on an individual basis. However, a systematic mechanism to assess and interpret the effect of PSP is invisible in the existing literature. Therefore, an assessment model is also proposed to test against the PSP training effects. In this paper, a set of analyses are conducted to explore the relationships among the PSP metrics and to interpret possible application results.
