Guide for Adoption of ISO/IEC TR :2007 Information Technology-Software Engineering-Guidelines for the Adoption of CASE Tools -  Computer Society
 N 14471

Annotation

Since CASE adoption is a subject of the broader technology transition problem, this Technical Report addresses the adoption practices appropriate for a wide range of computing organisations. This Technical Report neither dictates nor advocates particular development standards, software processes, design methods, methodologies, techniques, programming languages, or life-cycle paradigms.

This Technical Report will:

— identify critical success factors (CSF);

— propose a set of adoption processes;

— guide successful adoption in consideration of organisational and cultural environment.

The following groups are targeted as potential audiences:

— CASE users;

— information systems managers;

— chief information officers (CIO);

— CASE suppliers;

— software engineering consultants;

— those involved in the acquisition of CASE tools and technology.

Therefore this Technical Report addresses aspects of CASE tools adoption. It is best used with ISO/IEC 14102 for CASE tool evaluation and selection. It is complementary to related ISO/IEC documents which deal with the general aspects of these topics.
