1980년대 초기 미 국방성에서는 소프트웨어 개발업체의 소프트웨어 개발능력에 대한 판단 착오로 금전적, 시간적, 성능상의 많은 어려움을 겪어왔다. 따라서 미 국방성은 카네기 멜론 대학의 SEI(Software Engineering Institute)를 통하여 소프트웨어 개발능력을 측정하고, 조직의 소프트웨어 프로세스 성숙수준을 결정하기 위한 CMM(Capability Maturity Model)을 개발하였다. 그러나 CMM에 기반을 둔 소프트웨어 프로세스 평가 방법은 외부 전문가를 이용하여 평가하므로, 시간과 비용이 많이 소모되는 방법이다. 따라서 많은 기업에서 이러한 평가를 수행하는데 어려움을 느끼고 있다. 특히, 중ㆍ소규모의 조직에서 사용하기에는, CMM의 평가방법은 너무 복잡하고 추상적이다. 소규모 기업의 경우에 3년여에 걸친 프로세스 향상노력으로 많은 성과가 이루어 졌음에도 불구하고 CMM의 평가방법을 이용한 결과는 1 단계 수준을 벗어나지 못하였다는 사례들이 많이 발표되고 있다 이러한 결과들은 CMM의 평가 방법은 중소 규모 조직에는 적절치 않다는 것을 입증한다. 따라서 중소 규모 기업이나 조직의 소프트웨어 프로세스의 성숙도 평가와 개선을 위한 모델들을 개발하기 위한 노력이 전 세계적으로 광범위하게 펼쳐지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 최근의 모델인 CMMI(Capability Maturity Model Integration)의 소프트웨어 프로세스 영역 분류에 의거해서, 우리나라의 소프트41어의 개발과 취득에 관련된 조직들이 각 프로세스 영역을 얼마나 중요하게 평가하는지, 그리고 해당 영역에서의 기준, 절차 그리고 방법을 문서화시키는 것을 얼마나 중요하게 평가하는지를 조사하였다. 한국의 소프트웨어 개발 관행은 CMM이나 ISO 15504 등에서 바람직한 것으로 제시하고 있는 국제 표준과는 많이 다르며, 나아가서는, 예를 들어, 미국의 일반적인 관행과도 많이 다를 수 있다. 따라서 미국이나 유럽의 대규모 소프트웨어 조직을 위해서 개발된 CMM이나 ISO 15504 등은 우리나라의 중소 규모 소프트웨어 조직에는 특히 부적절할 수 있다 본 연구에서는 우리나라 소프트웨어 조직의 종류, 조직의 규모, 그리고 프로젝트 수행 규모에 따라서 각 소프트웨어 프로세스 영역의 중요도가 어떻게 다른지, 그리고 해당 소프트웨어 프로세스 영역의 기준, 절차 그리고 방법을 문서화시킬 필요성이 어떻게 변하는가를 조사하였다. 본 연구 결과는 우리나라의 소프트웨어 조직들이 프로세스 개선을 위해서 무엇을 정말로 필요로 하는지를 밝힘으로써, 한국 소프트웨어 산업의 현실적인 특수성을 고려한 소프트웨어 프로세스 평가와 개선 모델의 개발을 위한 기초적인 자료를 제공할 것으로 예상된다. 또한, 본 연구 결과는, 우리나라 소프트웨어 조직들이 실제로 무엇을 필요로 하는지를 밝힘으로써, 우리나라의 소프트웨어 산업을 육성하기 위한 실효성 있는 정책 입안을 위한 기초 자료를 제공할 것으로 예상된다.

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a theoretically sound framework for performance analysis that offers many advantages over traditional methods such as performance ratios and regression analysis. Largely the result of multidisciplinary research during the last three decades in economics, engineering and management, DEA is best described as an effective new way of visualizing and analyzing performance data. Besides, overseas information technology companies have aggressively tried to enter the domestic market. In the age of globalization and high competition, it is imperative that the system integration (SI) companies need to introduce the performance evaluation models of SI projects, including Capability Maturity Model and Software Process Improvement and Capability Determination, to gain a competitive advantage. Therefore, it makes our research regarding evaluation of SI projects very opportune. The purpose of the study is not only to evaluate efficiency of each project by DEA but also to gain insight into various factors such as project complexity, team members' man-months structure, and process index(project management index) that link to the projects performance.

소프트웨어의 크기가 커지고 복잡도가 증가함에 따라 소프트웨어 품질의 중요성은 점점 증대되고 있다. 소프트웨어의 품질 향상을 위해 소프트웨어 개발 조직은 테스트와 동료검토와 같이 제품 품질 향상을 위한 노력과 CMMI(Capability Maturity Model Integration), 소프트웨어프로세스 품질인증 기준과 같은 프로세스 품질 향상 노력을 하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 소프트웨어 분야의 품질 관리의 노력과 효과에 소요되는 품질비용에 대한 연구는 제조업이나 건설업 등 타 분야에 비해 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 소프트웨어 프로세스 개선을 위한 모델인 CMMI의 성숙도 레벨에 기반하여, K사의 품질비용관리 방안 적용 결과를 바탕으로 CMMI 성숙도 각 레벨마다 소프트웨어 개발 조직이 품질비용을 관리를 위한 목적과 활동으로 정의된 품질비용 관리 모델의 개발을 연구하였다.

The XP, the representative methodology of Agile software development, maximizes the effectiveness of the development by focusing on development itself and using primitive and basic process definition that can be easily implemented in the fields. However, the most of XP's practices came from those of engineering and the manogement practices of work product tend to be overlooked. The research on the implementation of those manogement practices has not been performed enough. Because of deficiency of processes that guide the change control over major baselines of work product and that describe proper continuous integration and refactoring in XP, the integrity of those work products is difficult to be guaranteed. To fulfill this work product integrity, CM(configuration manogement) should be hired and CMMI(Capability Maturity Model Integration) is considered to be the best references for that purpose, CMMI defines the required practices of CM and leave implementation details to the organization so that it could customize those practices based on the characteristics of its development methods. The CM process implementation guidelines based on CMMI could provides work product integrity with a way of keeping XP's agility that includes continuous integration, refactoring and small release. In this research, we selected CM process factors applicable to XP among CMMI's CM practices and based on them we developed the CM implementation guidelines.

Recently, as organizational systems have become larger and more complicated, the evaluation for their efficiency and effectiveness has become more difficult but important. It is essential to understand the current strength and weakness of the organizational process. It can be a starting point for improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the organizational systems, because the quality of system outputs depend greatly on the capability of system process. Particularly in such process-based industries as semiconductor, energy or software industries, an assessment of process capability is more highlighted to gain knowledge of the expected quality and reliability of system outputs. As a result, much attention has been given to the issues of process capability assessment in the process-based industries. However, most of the previous research in those industries is based on case studies, a more generalized method for process capability assessment is in need for help more companies improve their processes. Therefore, this study aims to propose a process capability assessment method and apply the proposed method to an energy company. This research argues that the process capability is composed of individual and organizational capabilities of the process. Then, the concept of Capability Maturity Model Integration, which was initially suggested to evaluate the software development process, was introduced to develop the assessment tools and process. Finally, the proposed method was applied to a Korean company in the energy industry sector to verify its utility. The research outputs are expected to help more firms assess their process capability and ultimately improve the process.

Most enterprise information systems today are silo systems in that they are not properly aligned nor integrated with one another. Such silo systems result because enterprises lack an architectural perspective in the planning and development of the systems. This paper proposes an Enterprise Architecture Orientation Model as a framework for the analysis, planning and design of the architectural quality of enterprise information systems. The model decomposes enterprise architecture into two dimensions-alignment and integration, and specifies for each dimension the general development and evolution stages enterprises may traverse. The alignment dimension represents the vertical strategic alignment of the systems with the vision, mission, strategy and goals of the enterprise, and is analyzed in terms of the performance, capability, and strategy of the enterprise. The integration dimension, on the other hand, represents the horizontal and functional integration among the systems that span organizational functions and boundaries, and is analyzed in terms of such technological components as IT infrastructure, data, application, and business processes. The model combines the alignment and integration dimensions to form a two-dimensional conceptual space for mapping the architectural quality of the enterprise. It is proposed that an enterprise use the model to identify and understand its position now and in the future in the architectural quality of the enterprise information systems. It is also proposed that the model provides a tool for the planning and design of the transition from one stage to the next in the alignment and integration of the systems to reach an architectural maturity. At the end, the paper discusses how the model can be applied differently according to the strategic orientation of the enterprise. An example of the usage of the model is presented.

In the past it was generally felt that software quality was the same as product quality. But as the software industry is getting bigger and more complex, it has become hard to develop quality software that meets customers' needs just depending on product quality. Therefore, lately many domestic and foreign companies are making efforts to upgrade product quality by implementing Process Improvement. Measurement in Process Improvement activities enhances the effect of Process Improvement, and also identifies and helps the activities. In support of this paper, research on the measurement program was conducted based on the CMMI adopted by many domestic and foreign companies for their process improvement model. MA process area that deals with measurement process setup is one of the CMMI process areas and was the basis of the structure of the measurement program. This study presents differences of the measurement program for each level of CMMI and how to apply it. The results of this study can help a business to apply CMMI-based Process Improvement by backing up the structure of the measurement program. Furthermore, it can offer a roadmap for progress of the measurement program for each level.

Purpose: CMMI is a process model used to assess or improve an organization's software development capabilities. This paper deals with the quality indicators when using CMMI and their priorities for possible improvement. Methods: The 22 process areas and 167 practices of CMMI are matched with 60 indicators of Quality Scorecard(QSC) first to analyze the balance of CMMI in terms of prevention, appraisal, and final result categories and second to isolate a set of key areas for quality focused performance measures. Results: A total of 86.2% (144 out of 167) CMMI practices were mapped to QSC. According to the CMMI level of maturity, level 2 and 3 accounted for more than 75% of the total. The practices at the maturity level of 4 and 5 were mapped to more than 52% of the final result's measurements. It has been observed that CMMI practices need further elaboration at higher levels to consider prevention, appraisal, and final results simultaneously. Conclusion: In order to improve the quality performance of the organization by applying CMMI, the final result measures should be refined in metrics, cycles, and methods, and then corrective actions could be conducted to improve the performance of CMMI practices. This strategy would help the practitioners benefit from CMMI in fostering the overall quality level of key activities for the organization's business goals.
