Biographie de l'auteur :

Khaled El Emam obtained his PhD from the Department of Electricaland Electronics Engineering, King′s College, the University ofLondon (UK) in 1994. He was previously a research scientist at theCentre de recherche informatique de Montreal (CRIM) in Canada.Currently he is the head of the Quantitative Methods Group at theFraunhofer Institute for Experimental Software Engineering inGermany. El Emam is also the founding and current editor of theIEEE TCSE Software Process Newsletter.
He is a member of the Core Trials Team of ISO′s SPICE Project,which is empirically evaluating the emerging InternationalStandard. He has previously worked in both small and large softwareresearch and development projects for organizations such as ToshibaInternational Company and Honeywell Control Systems. He haspublished more than forty articles on software engineeringmeasurement, empirical evaluation in software engineering, softwareprocess improvement, and requirements engineering.

Jean–Normand Drouin has more than 12 years experience as a softwareengineer at Bell Canada, the largest Telecom company in Canada. Heis a Trillium author and assessor (Trillium is Bell Canada′s ownSoftware Process Assessment method for the Telecommunicationsindustry). He is also the SPICE Technical Center Manager forCanada, Central and South America, as well as one of the firstSPICE assessors.

Alec Dorling is the international SPICE Project Manager. He iscurrently resident at IVF′s Centre for Software Engineering inSweden. Previously he was the International and Strategic ProjectManager at the European Software Institute (ESI) in Spain.
Alec is a Chartered Engineer with 25 years experience in thesoftware industry gained both in real–time and commercial systemsenvironments. He is an internationally–recognized expert in thefield of Software Quality Management and Process Improvement.
Alec has been involved with most of the UK Government′s initiativesin software engineering and software quality over the years,including the STARTS program, the Software Tools DemonstrationCentre, the Software Engineering Solutions program, the QualityManagement Library, and TickIT. He has also been consultant to theSoftware Quality Unit of the UK Department of Trade and Industryproviding advise on priorities for government action on SoftwareQuality, Standards, and Certification . He carried out the initialstudies for the UK Ministry of Defence which were a precursor tothe launch of the SPICE Project.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

The SPICE (Software Process Improvement and CapabilitydEtermination) Project is a joint effort by the ISO and IEC tocreate an international standard for software process assessment.This book covers both the theory of SPICE and its practicalapplications, including the lessons learned from the SPICE trials.It includes a valuable automated tool on CD–ROM to help you applythe concepts presented in the book.

The text shows the evolution of the most recent developments in theSPICE project. It documents the major products and the empiricalevaluations that have been conducted thus far. The book is jointlywritten by the key experts involved in the SPICE project. Thetheory chapters describe the rationale behind the architecture andthe contents of the V1.0 and V2.0 document set and how to interpretthem. The remaining chapters describe the applications and how thatmake use of the theory behind them.
