Marco Kuhrmann - Böcker

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Product-Focused Software Process Improvement, PROFES 2018, held in Wolfsburg, Germany, in November 2018.The 16 revised full papers and 8 short papers presented together with 10 workshop papers and 2 industry talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 65 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: processes and methods; empirical studies in industry; testing; measuremene and monitoring; and global software engineering and scaling. Further relevant topics were added by the events co-located with PROFES 2018, the Second International Workshop on Managing Quality in Agile and Rapid Software Development Processes (QUASD) and the Third Workshop on Hybrid Software and System Development Approaches (HELENA).

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 23rd International Conference on Product-Focused Software Process Improvement, PROFES 2022, which took place in Jyväskylä, Finland in November 2022.The 24 full technical papers, 9 short papers, and 6 poster papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 75 submissions. The book also contains and 8 doctoral symposium papers and 7 tutorial and workshop papers.The contributions were organized in topical sections as follows: Keynote; Cloud and AI; Empirical Studies; Process Management; Refactoring and Technical Dept; Software Business and Digital Innovation; Testing and Bug Prediction; Posters; Tutorials; Workshop on Engineering Processes and Practices for Quantum Software (PPQS’22); 1st Workshop on Computational Intelligence and Software Engineering (CISE 2022); Doctoral Symposium.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Product-Focused Software Process Improvement, PROFES 2014, held in Helsinki, Finland, in December 2014. The 18 revised full papers presented together with 14 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 45 initial submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on agile development, decision-making, development practices and issues, product planning, and project management.

This book focuses on the design, development, management, governance and application of evolving software processes that are aligned with changing business objectives, such as expansion to new domains or shifting to global production. In the context of an evolving business world, it examines the complete software process lifecycle, from the initial definition of a product to its systematic improvement. In doing so, it addresses difficult problems, such as how to implement processes in highly regulated domains or where to find a suitable notation system for documenting processes, and provides essential insights and tips to help readers manage process evolutions. And last but not least, it provides a wealth of examples and cases on how to deal with software evolution in practice.Reflecting these topics, the book is divided into three parts. Part 1 focuses on software business transformation and addresses the questions of which process(es) to use and adapt, and how to organizeprocess improvement programs. Subsequently, Part 2 mainly addresses process modeling. Lastly, Part 3 collects concrete approaches, experiences, and recommendations that can help to improve software processes, with a particular focus on specific lifecycle phases.This book is aimed at anyone interested in understanding and optimizing software development tasks at their organization. While the experiences and ideas presented will be useful for both those readers who are unfamiliar with software process improvement and want to get an overview of the different aspects of the topic, and for those who are experts with many years of experience, it particularly targets the needs of researchers and Ph.D. students in the area of software and systems engineering or information systems who study advanced topics concerning the organization and management of (software development) projects and process improvements projects.

This book focuses on the design, development, management, governance and application of evolving software processes that are aligned with changing business objectives, such as expansion to new domains or shifting to global production.

Das V-Modell® XT ist das durch die Bundesverwaltung verpflichtend vorgeschriebene Vorgehensmodell für die Entwicklung von IT-Systemen.Das Buch bietet einen kompakten Einstieg in die neue Version 1.3 des Modells. Es behandelt die Änderungen gegenüber der Vorgängerversion, die wesentlichen Konzepte des V-Modell® XT und detailliert die Bereiche Projektmanagement und Qualitätssicherung. Best Practises und Hinweise zur Bewältigung typischer Aufgabenstellungen im V-Modell® XT runden das Buch ab.

Dieses Buch stellt einen methodischen Leitfaden für Prozessingenieure, Berater, Methodenverantwortliche oder Assessoren bei der Anpassung und Einführung des V-Modell®XT zur Verfügung. Es erläutert alle wichtigen Anpassungsoptionen und Techniken, die Anwendern des V-Modell®XT im Rahmen von organisationsspezifischen Anpassungen zur Verfügung stehen. Zahlreiche Beispiele zeigen die praktische Anwendung einzelner Techniken. Weiterhin wird der gesamte Anpassungs- und Einführungsprozess, von der Konzeption bis hin zur Mitarbeiterschulung beschrieben.

Software Engineering hat das ingenieurmäßige Entwickeln umfangreicher Softwaresysteme zum Ziel. Kritische Größen sind Kosten, Termine und Qualität. Neben unterschiedlichen Themengebieten der Softwaretechnik umfasst das Software Engineering aber insbesondere auch Themen der Projektplanung, der Projektorganisation und der Projektdurchführung, also das Management und die Organisation von Softwareprojekten. Dieses Fachbuch führt in die grundlegenden Aufgaben und Zusammenhänge der Organisation und des Managements von Softwareprojekten ein. Es richtet sich an Praktiker, Berufseinsteiger und Studierende der Informatik und behandelt die folgenden Themen:- Grundlagen zu Softwareprojekten und deren OrganisationVorgehensmodelle im Software Engineering- Unternehmens- und ProjektorganisationProjektdefinition, Aufwandsschätzung, Angebots- und Vertragswesen- Projektmanagement- und QS-Verfahren- Techniken der Planung, Kontrolle und Steuerung von Softwareprojekten- Metriken, Messung und Reifegradmodelle für SoftwareprojekteMit zahlreichen Übungen werden die Inhalte vertieft und in einen praktisch anwendbaren Kontext gestellt.
