Our recent work with developing and applying AHEAD, which blends requirements engineering, AHP, architecture analysis, and prototyping for software technology evaluations, has been well received. Since the QFD Symposium, we’ve had papers on different aspects of the AHEAD method accepted by IASTED, SEPG, SAC, and SATURN! These AHEAD papers will be made available, subject to the conference publishers’ permission policies, after the conferences.
We also set a new personal-best record for accepted papers at the CMMI Technology Conference: seven! The papers include lessons learned from geographically distributed appraisals and innovative approaches to economic valuation of SPI activities. PDFs are now available online at the NDIA site and via our 2008 CMMI Technology conference page.
(Conferences page has been updated – Publications page, by date, will follow soonis now up to date too.)
We’ve also recently vetted our 2009 RE (requirements engineering) research roadmap with management, and are diving into some exciting new areas of work – stay tuned 🙂 Also mulling whether to submit papers for RE2009 and/or Agile 2009 …
