A METHODOLOGICAL APPROACH FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF SOFTWARE QUALITY MULTI-MODELS ADOPTING CERTICS AND CMMI-DEV

Abstract

This paper proposes a mapping between product quality and software process models used in the industry, using CERTICS, a Brazilian national model, and CMMI-DEV, an international model, aiming to compare the requirements of the CERTICS model to the requirements of the CMMI-DEV model, to allow companies to implement both models simultaneously. The stages of mapping are presented step by step, as well as the mapping review, which had the cooperation of specialists in CERTICS and CMMI-DEV models. It aims to correlate the structures of the two models in order to reduce the implementation time and costs, and stimulate the realization of multi-model implementations in software developers companies.
