The Research on Software Measurement Process Model and Data Acquisition and Analysis

Software metrics include project metrics, product metrics and process metrics. Software measurement process model embodies the relations among the three aspects of collection mechanism, analysis evaluation and project control of the metrics data. The three measurement activities and measurement information can be respectively applied to effective data acquisition, measurement process improvement and software process management. Data collection and analysis are the key to the software measurement process, the continued advancement of their technologies and methods has important significance on the improvement of software measurement process.

Brief Discussion on PSP and its Application and Implementation in Software Engineering Management

After years of development, software process management has become a mature system that contains a lot of management practices and models, in which is the most well-known CMM process model. However it only provides process improvement guidance from macro perspective rather than micro perspective that containing clearly specific knowledge and skills required for the individual. PSP is designed for individual software engineers, and provides necessary and strong support for CMM implementation. Its methodology has become more and more mature and been applied widely. From the perspective of software quality management, this paper makes a systematic overview of PSP including its developing route, framework, application and so on , it also provides suggestions and measures for software companies to implement PSP.
