Quality Definition
• Producer’s view of quality- Philip Crosby
–Quality means conformance to requirements
• Customer’s view of quality – Joseph Juran
–Quality is fitness for use
•
What is Process?
Process
- A set of activities, methods, practices and transformations
that people use to develop and maintain software and
associated products
- A sequence of steps performed for a given purpose
Software Quality
-Software product/service which meets the requirements
documented in specifications
-Software with less number of defects
(Low Defect Density)
Capability Maturity Model Integration
(CMMI)
The Capability Maturity Model Integration for Software (CMMI) is
a framework that describes the key elements of an effective
software process.
The CMMI describes an evolutionary improvement path from
an ad hoc, immature process to a mature, disciplined process.
KPA
Each Key Process Area identifies a cluster of related activities that, when
performed collectively, achieve a set of goals considered important for
establishing process capability at that maturity level.

Understanding CMMI Representations
• There are two types of representations in the CMMI models:
▫ staged
▫ continuous
• A representation allows an organization to pursue different
improvement objectives
• The organization and presentation of the data are different in each
representation. However, the content is the same.
Staged Representation
• Provides a proven sequence of improvements, each serving as a
foundation for the next
• Permits comparisons across and among organizations by the use of
maturity levels
• Provides an easy migration from the SW-CMM to CMMI
• Provides a single rating that summarizes appraisal results and allows
comparisons among
Quality Management System
• A quality management system (QMS) is a policy, set of processes and
procedures (Templates) required for planning and execution in the
core business area of an organization
V.L.S. System QMS Structure
SEPG Activities
• The SEPG must perform two main tasks:
▫ Establish and Maintain QMS
▫ Coordinating and sustaining process change and
▫ Monitoring Software Engineering activities
• The SEPG should ensure that all changes to the process are
documented and performed in a manner that will maintain
consistency and CMMI compliance

Templates, Standards, Tailoring Guidelines, Analysis Reports,
