| Descripción: | This thesis proposes the evaluation and comparison of software process engineering support tools and environments. The two dimensions our work focuses on are the goals pursued when processes are engineered, and the roles, related to software processes, played in a software production setting. A framework is proposed to help assess how well software process support tools and environments meet specified goals, and support identified roles. Software process support approaches as well as the tools and environments implementing them are studied in order to provide for the necessary knowledge needed to make sensible judgments. The results of our evaluation show that three important issues are still inadequately addressed: the place of the human element, the tremendous degree of dynamism needed, and the continuous improvement of processes. Our findings suggest that presently we do not have the broad, and widely available mechanical support necessary to help software companies move beyond the defined level (level 3) of the Software Engineering Institute (SEI) Capability Maturity Model. |
