“…In fact, it is a common situation to have an organization jointly using several standards in a software process improvement (SPI) initiative. However, adopting multiple standards and/or models often results in misalignment, creating additional reconciliation efforts [16]. This misalignment is caused largely by the semantic interoperability problems reported above.…”

Software measurement is a key process for software project management and software process improvement. There are several process quality models and measurement standards that point out its importance and present good practices for it. Unfortunately, the vocabulary used by these models is diverse. This leads to misunderstanding and problems related to the jointly use of different standards. Aiming at establishing a common conceptualization regarding the software measurement process, we developed a Software Measurement Task Ontology (SMTO), which is grounded on the Unified Foundational Ontology. This task ontology was developed to be used for addressing semantic interoperability problems arising from the jointly use of different measurement-related standards, as well as for supporting semantic integration of software applications supporting measurement.

“…"), verificou-se o uso da linguagem UML para representação dos conceitos e relação dos modelos de forma comum (LEPASAAR et al, 2002); de critérios mais específicos relacionados ao atendimento de requisitos de um modelo, em comparação a requisitos de outro modelo (CHANWOO et al, 2004). Tam-bém foi verificada a adoção de critérios associados a atributos específicos criados para a análise e posterior comparação dos modelos, envolvendo tamanho e complexidade, respectivamente baseados no escopo e estrutura de cada modelo (FERREIRA et al, 2010).…”

A utilização de mais de uma norma de qualidade ou modelo de referência como guias para adoção de melhores práticas no desenvolvimento de software é cada vez mais comum pelas organizações de software que objetivam a melhoria de seus processos. Este artigo apresenta a metodologia utilizada para a definição de um mapeamento entre o CMMI-DEV e o MR-MPS de forma a auxiliar as organizações em iniciativas de melhoria de processos de software multi-modelos, seja no âmbito das implementações ou das avaliações de processos. Ao ser utilizada, esta metodologia possibilitou a identificação das similaridades e diferenças entre os modelos e, de forma complementar, deu origem a instrumentos de apoio às iniciativas desta natureza.

“…As a consequence of differences in terminology and structure of quality approaches, the CMMI framework was developed in such a way that it includes both “a common terminology, common model components, common appraisal methods, and common training materials” . Size and complexity can influence the selection and simultaneous usage of multiple quality approaches.…”

SUMMARY In this article, we analyze current initiatives in multimodel software process improvement and identify criteria for multimodel solutions. With multimodel, we mean the simultaneous usage of more than one quality approach (e.g. standards, methods, techniques to improve software processes). This paper discusses first the current problems regarding the use of multiple software quality approaches. Subsequently, multimodel initiatives are categorized into three different groups, respectively: quality approach harmonization, quality approach integration, and quality approach mapping. Based on an analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of current multimodel initiatives in these three classes, we derive a set of criteria, which can provide a basis for multimodel software process improvement solutions.
