  Book Information

CMMI is a well-known and standardized model for assessing
and improving software and systems development processes. It
can be used to guide process improvement across a project, a
division, or an entire organization. CMMI was developed at
the Carnegie Mellon Software Engineering Institute (SEI).
The current version, 1.2, was published in 2006 and is being
adopted worldwide.

This book provides hands-on experience and will help the
reader to gain an understanding of CMMI. It is an
introduction to the model and its fundamental ideas. Through
numerous examples, it helps the reader to get started with
CMMI and to understand the interrelationship among model
components (practices, goals, and process areas).

The book covers the following topics:
Model-based process improvement
Overview of CMMI components
History of CMMI and comparison to CMM
Process areas of CMMI models
Application, potential, and limitations of CMMI
