Process Management And The Application Of CMM In Japan Outsourcing Software Project

With China's accession to the WTO, the annual amount of China's software exportincreases rapidly. The software exported to Japan has occupied a big export market.How to improve the Japan outsourcing software process management has become a hottopic. It is also an urgent problem to solve.As a guideline for the software process improvement, CMM has been adopted inmost countries or areas such as North American, Europe and Japan. However, in chinathe CMM practice is still insufficient, especially in the domain of Japan outsourcingsoftware. Most companies still doubt for the application of CMM in their Japanoutsourcing software project.The author detailed analyzed the software process solution for Japan outsourcingsoftware project, based on the CMM theory and discussed the characters of Japanoutsourcing software project and analyzed the ubiquitous typed problem in softwaredevelopment, put forward some thinks of solution.The dissertation tailor some KPAsbased on CMM Level 2 and CMM Level 3. Which is innovative is that some newprocess will founded in order to solve the most important problems in Japan outsourcingsoftware process. With the combination of the author's experience on Japan outsourcingsoftware project development, the dissertation presents a CMM-Based software processsolution for Japan outsourcing software project, and has the value for the middlingenterprise in how to put CMMin practice in software development process.In consideration of the background of China's software export companies, thedissertation's research work is based on CMM Level 2. Most attention will paid onKPAs such as: Requirement Management, Change Management, Project Plan andTracking, Quality Assurance, Configuration Management and Training. An actual Japanoutsourcing software project was given to illustrate the process of implantation and toverify the software process improvement.
