Abstract:
Process and continuous process
improvement is a very important aspect in Web-based
software development organizations to meet the cost
effective objectives of organizations. Despite the
importance of Software Process Improvement (SPI), there
is enough evidence that the majority of Web-based
software development organizations are facing major
obstacles to adopt existing SPI models and standards
as they perceive them as being oriented towards traditional
software organizations. This paper attempts to develop a
new software process improvement maturity model in order
to guide Web-based software development organizations
to enhance their SPI implementation program by learning
from the experiences of others organizations that are
already out there developing Web-based projects. The
backbone of this model is the examination and analyzing
the existed SPI approaches found in the literature.
Additionally, this model is inspired from capability maturity
model Integration (CMMI) and is based on critical success
factor and best practices identified through literature.
