Definition of Software Process Lines for Integration of Scrum and CMMI
Daniel Dias de Carvalho, Larissa Fernandes Chagas, Carla Reis · 2014
The adoption of Agile Methods, like Scrum, in conjunction with maturity models, like Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI), often leads to variation of process. Process definition is a complex and difficult task, requiring a lot of effort and experience. Software Process Line (SPrL) has been considered a suitable paradigm for software process tailoring and reuse; and there is a lack of approaches that use SPrL concepts for modeling these approaches in conjunction. This paper presents the definition of a SPrL considering Project Planning and Project Monitoring and Control process areas in processes using Scrum agile methodology together with CMMI maturity model. It is expected the presented SPrL assists software organizations to tailor processes that meet both approaches.
