Software Process Model (SPM) is an abstraction of the software development process over time to assist in managing the process. SPM has attracted significant attention from researchers and practitioners in the past decades. Due to the complexity of SPM, ...

Over the years, a substantial body of knowledge of software process improvement (SPI) was accumulated that, among other things, includes numerous success factors that companies should consider when conducting improvement activities. The number of success ...

Several arguments support the proposition that corporations can be viewed as cognitive entities. But accepting that corporations perform cognitive functions raises questions about how we might describe and assess those functions. In this paper I propose ...

Many organizations implementing DevOps are adopting DORA metrics to measure their capabilities. Surveys are commonly used to gather the DORA metric data. The data are typically captured only in longer intervals, and on the team level, omitting important ...

Post-deployment monitoring (PDM) occurs in the late stages of a DevSecOps (DSO) pipeline. Its role in DSO is critical in providing feedback loops on system performance leading to desirable changes achieving long-term system and application sustainment. ...

In microservice platforms with high number of users and heavy traffic, it is necessary to monitor the system, take quick action against errors and ensure the maintainability of the system. However, debugging on these platforms can take a long time. This ...

Multi-modeling is an approach within the MDE realm that promotes the development of complex systems by decomposing them in sets of heterogeneous models. These models are defined using different modeling languages and constructed using diverse tools. ...

In large-scale projects operated in regulated environments, standard development processes are employed to meet strict compliance demands. Since such processes are usually complex, providing process users with access to their required process, which ...

In regulation-intensive domains, software engineering organizations need to demonstrate compliance with process and traceability guidelines. To this end, novel approaches have emerged that support these activities via the automatic checking of ...
