Abstract

This paper presents three-step process for validating the software process assessment model and report the result of each step to check the validity of MND-ESPAM. MND-ESPAM is the software process assessment model invented for evaluating the software process capability of Korean military software organizations, but it is not sufficiently validated so that it cannot be decided to spread it into the military software industry. The three-step process suggested in this paper is composed of 1) the investigation of the state of the Korean military software companies via a questionnaire survey, 2) the software process assessment via a questionnaire survey based on MND-ESPAM, and 3) the experimental software process assessment by the CMMI appraisal team with MND-ESPAM. After the validation, we suggest important improvements of the MND-ESPAM assessment model.
