Software Engineering Maturity and the Process Revolution

[ExecutiveBrief]

To mature software engineering, we must learn from history, and to learn from history, we must define what we do when we develop software and how we do it. When we produce a process specification and define measures for the key process parameters, we are beginning to build the basis for reliably and consistently recording and learning from history. That is why the process revolution is so important.

According to Watts S. Humphrey, from Software Engineering Institute, new software engineering processes will drive creativity and productivity while limiting schedule and cost overruns.
