Process improvement in intelligent simulation environment development

Objective

The PROMISED experiment aims to increase the level of maturity of CSTB's development process from it's current status where procedures are performed on the basis of individual knowledge to a higher level of maturity (SPICE Level 3 - Well defined) where processes are described in a formal way and therefore can be repeated by new contributors.

The SPICE assessment of CSTB's current software process revealed the limits of this process and possible ways of improvements. The experiment will focus on the following improvements:

process modelling including user-defined metrics
traceability management
configuration management.

The tool chosen for the experiment is Concerto/SKIPPER of SEMA Group (F).
The baseline project (ISE v3) developed by the SDSC (Software Development and Software Certification) team aims to develop an Intelligent Simulation Environment in order to allow encapsulation, at a reasonable cost, of various simulation tools in a homogeneous and user-friendly application. CSTB employs 560 people, 13 of them are members of the SDSC team.

EXPECTED IMPACT AND EXPERIENCE

The expected results of the experiment are improvements of CSTB's development process. These improvements will be measured in order to quantify the impact of the tested solutions in relation with their costs. This information will then be used as an input for a decision making process aiming to define relevant milestones for a total quality approach applied to the software development activities of the organisation.

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: The European Science Vocabulary.
