Proposal of a Case Search Method Based on Software Process Improvement Activity Factors

Abstract

When conducting software process improvement activities, it is important for each organization to build a system for promoting company-wide process improvement activities, spread this system to each division, and ensure that improvement activities are continued and developed. However, the following issues are often reported when implementing software process improvement activities: the fact that it is complicated to determine how to build a promotion system and the fact that it is difficult to utilize improvement promotion activity cases in line with the organization's environment. To help resolve these issues, this research proposes a process-improvement-case search method that uses process improvement promotional factors, which help lead to success when conducting process improvement activities.
