Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 14Software Process Improvement Methodologies for Small and Medium Enterprises(2008) Mishra,D.; Mishra,A.Today, the software industry is one of the most rapidly growing sectors and small software development companies play an important role in economy. Many such organizations have been interested in Software Process Improvement (SPI). It has been observed that the successful implementation of SPI methodologies is generally not possible within the context of small and medium-sized software enterprises (SMEs) because they are not capable of bearing the cost of implementing these software process improvement programs. Further the proper implementation of software engineering techniques is difficult task for SMEs as they often operate on limited resources and with strict time constraints. There are number of methodologies to address these issues. In this paper, various SPI methodologies for SMEs are discussed and compared. This will lead towards maturity of software process improvement in SMEs and also facilitates in development of automation tools for SPIs in future. © 2008 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.Article Citation - Scopus: 15Software Quality Assurance Models in Small and Medium Organisations: a Comparison(Inderscience Publishers, 2006) Mishra,A.; Mishra,D.Presently, the majority of software development including outsourcing is carried out by small- and medium-sized software development organisations all over the world. These organisations are not capable of bearing the cost of implementing available software quality models like CMM, SPICE, ISO, etc. Therefore, there is a need to address this problem. In this paper, we have tried to compare the main characteristics, benefits, and limitations of the models for small and medium software development organisations. We believe that this effort will contribute towards the development of a standardised quality improvement model for small- and medium-sized software development organisations.

The main focus is to highlight the current research and practice direction in these areas. The results have been limited to peer-reviewed conference papers and journal articles, published between 2000 and 2011. The analysis reports that major studies have been performed in quality and process management, while verification and validation issues of GSD can only get limited attention among researchers. This indicates the need for future research (quantitative and qualitative) in these areas. © 2013 Springer-Verlag.Conference Object Software Process Improvement Methodologies for Small and Medium Enterprises(2008) Mishra,D.; Mishra,A.Today, the software industry is one of the most rapidly growing sectors and small software development companies play an important role in economy.
