Best practices for software maturity improvement: a GÉANT case study (2009.01501v1)
Published 3 Sep 2020 in cs.SE
Abstract: Maturity models for software indicate the key areas that contribute to quality improvements. They usually combine technical, organisational and human aspects relevant for effective software development, to focus the efforts and draw the direction for optimisations. In this paper, we present the process of defining best practices that support the G\'{E}ANT Software Maturity Model (GSMM), aligned to the needs of a distributed, innovation-driven, pan-European organisation. Based on the identification of specific goals relevant for G\'{E}ANT and a preliminary maturity assessment, we created a catalogue of best practices that help the software teams to attain the goals defined in the GSMM.
