Modeling software maturity: A software life cycle management approach

Modeling software maturity: A knowledge accumulation and continuous improvement approach

“…Specifically, let us look at how the model is used to software development process in design. We have statically analyzed the relationship between design and requirement changes while comparing human beings educational process in [3]. "As human beings, whether one is useful and influential or not, one is judged by their knowledge and their capabilities.…”

“…"As human beings, whether one is useful and influential or not, one is judged by their knowledge and their capabilities. Software product is the same in the ways it is built with efficient knowledge structures for problems they can address [3]." In software development, its knowledge structure and capabilities are built through architecture design.…”

“…My observation via analytical thinking with a snapshot of retiring software [3] is in quality related issues. However, the distinction between software and hardware breaks conventional views of quality.…”

“…As a result, An Evolutionary Approach to Evaluate the Quality of Software [2] has been presented at IWACI 2011, where the truth is, in order to argue well on measuring defects as a reasonable solution, it is necessary to have a simple model of software maturity, which can illuminate the essential characters of software and expose the insights to the usefulness in software development methodologies. The paper Modeling Software Maturity: a Life Cycle Management Approach [3] is the result of this effort. Written as a conference submission, my focus of the paper has been to portray the main characters of software in each stages of its development parallel to a realistic life of human beings: "a life starts with conception, and it goes through the pregnancy, the birth, the nursing of a baby, kindergarten, the twelve grades, college or technical schooling, the entry to the workforce, the prime of being an expert in whatever field(s), and the re-education naturally as desirable or as needed; each individual is scientifically developed and matured to reach each one's expected longevity while everyone of us being useful and enjoying our lives [3]."…”

We tend to infer or to argue via analogies.…”
