The customization of software process capability/maturity models to specific domains/sectors or development methodologies represents one of the most critical challenges of the process improvement domain. As a result of the literature review, it is observed that there is a lack of a guideline for how to improve process quality in governmental institutions. Therefore, in this study, development of a government process capability model based on ISO/IEC 15504 is aimed in order to ensure that processes are consistently applied, managed, and controlled across a governmental institution. Towards this goal, a government business process classification framework consisting of management of government resources and support processes and government specific processes is constructed. As a government specific process; public investment management process is defined and assessed as a case study to explore the applicability of this framework. Initial findings of the study indicate the usefulness and adequacy of the proposed approach.

Improvement proposal for a software requirements management process
Yamaç, Pınar Işıl; Bilgen, Semih; Department of Information Systems (2006)
This thesis focuses on measurement based software process improvement, especially improvement of requirements change management process. The literature on software measurement is investigated, software process improvement methodologies are studied and requirements change management metrics are examined. Requirements change management process at a private company working in the defense industry is observed and metrics obtained from various tools have been aggregated. Moreover, an improvement proposal, which ...
Unified Process Modeling with UPROM Tool
Aysolmaz, Banu; Demirörs, Onur (2014-06-20)
UPROM tool is a business process modeling tool designed to conduct business process and user requirements analysis in an integrated way to constitute a basis for process automation. Usually, business process models are not utilized systematically to develop related artifacts, specifically when a process-aware information system is to be developed to automate those processes. This results in completeness, consistency and maintainability problems for those artifacts. Unified business process modeling methodol...
Interoperability by means of configurable connectors
Kaya, Muhammed Çağrı; Doğru, Ali H.; Department of Computer Engineering (2020)
A configurable connector-based software development methodology for componentbased approaches is presented. This method involves the incorporation of variability modeling capabilities into component modeling environments. The focus of this research is on supporting technologies for the combination of parts that are not directly compatible. In the scope of this research, firstly, proposals for the configurable connector paradigm are put forth, that are, achieving interoperability among system components by u...
Experience report: implementing requirement traceability throughout the software development life cycle
Akman, Suha; Ozmut, Mert; Aydin, Burak; Gokturk, Serhat (2016-11-01)
The developed traceability model is essential in helping project members, project managers and customers, all understand the product at all stages of the software development life cycle and maintain the integrity of the design information. Utilizing a well designed development environment and an environment support team is vital in maintaining the requirement traceability. With the requirement traceability, the customers' requirement status can be monitored and the relationships among requirements, design d...
Assessment of Software Process and Metrics to Support Quantitative Understanding: Experience from an Undefined Task Management Process
TARHAN, AYÇA; Demirörs, Onur (2011-06-01)
Software engineering management demands the measurement, evaluation and improvement of the software processes and products. However, the utilization of measurement and analysis in software engineering is not very straightforward. It requires knowledge on the concepts of measurement, process management, and statistics as well as on their practical applications. We developed a systematic approach to evaluate the suitability of a software process and its measures for quantitative analysis, and have applied the...
