  1. NASA IV&V Facility NASA Software Productivity Consortium Affiliation NASA Office of Safety and Mission Assurance Software Assurance Symposium September 5, 2001 Cynthia Calhoun NASA IV&V Facility Fairmont, WV (304) 367-8309 Cynthia.Calhoun@ivv.nasa.gov www.ivv.nasa.gov

  2. Purpose • Provide an avenue for NASA software programs to utilize Software Productivity Consortium (SPC) processes, methods, tools and services that will significantly improve their ability to build high integrity, reliable, and safe software intensive systems OSMA SAS ‘01

  3. Objectives • Gain access to industry perspectives and plans for software and systems engineering process technology • Provide SPC resources (guidebooks, technical reports, case studies, and training videos) via the NASA Software Working Group to NASA software engineering personnel • Participate in SPC workshops, conferences, and executive roundtables to stay abreast of current software engineering technology trends • Incorporate knowledge gained into existing and future software process improvement activities at the NASA Centers OSMA SAS ‘01

  4. History • SPC membership originally established for NASA under the Glenn Research Center in June 1996 via a Center Initiative • Gretchen Davidian was NASA liaison to SPC • NASA liaison position transferred to IV&V Facility in May 1997 OSMA SAS ‘01

  5. SPC Overview • Unique, nonprofit partnership of industry, government, and academia • Develop processes, methods, tools, and supporting services to help their members and affiliates build high-quality, component-based systems, and continuously advance their systems and software engineering maturity • Membership is open to all U.S. or Canadian-based companies, government agencies, and academic organizations • Currently stands at 95 members (e.g. - AT&T, Kodak, Unisys, Boeing, Draper Labs, FAA, Air Force, Navy, Army, Carnegie Mellon Univ, John Hopkins Univ, USC) OSMA SAS ‘01

  6. Benefits • SPC membership will aid NASA programs with: • Integrating systems and software disciplines • Leveraging model-based and component-based development methods within an architectural framework • Complying with various software and system development standards, maturity models, and quality standards • Defining, collecting, analyzing, and applying measurements for management, process improvement, quality improvement, systems engineering, and software development activities • Understanding technology trends and the impact on NASA programs OSMA SAS ‘01

  7. Project & Risk Management Integrated Systems and Software Engineering Process CMMI Higher-level software maturity Systems engineering maturity Establishing a Metrics Program Product Line Management and Engineering (Reuse Adoption) Compliance Framework Mapping Tool (Quagmap ®) Software estimation Consortium Requirements Engineering Test Automation Framework Defect Prevention Consortium Approach to Framework Engineering Products/Services Samples OSMA SAS ‘01

  8. Technology Transfer • Various products and services from the Consortium utilized by NASA programs • Reuse-Driven Software Processes Guidebook • Product Line Management and Engineering • Product Line Definition Workshop • Reuse Economics Spreadsheet Model Tool and User Manual • Consortium Object-Oriented Software Engineering Using UML (COSUML) Guidebook • Object-Oriented Approach for Software Intensive Systems (OOASIS) Method • IV&V Return-On-Investment Research Study • Practical Software Measurement Guidebook • Practical Software Measurement Insight Workstation Tool OSMA SAS ‘01

  9. Events • NASA personnel participated in the following activities with or at the SPC: 2001: • SPC Eighth Annual Executive Executive Roundtable • National Imagery and Mapping Agency (NIMA) and Software Productivity Consortium Process Improvement Workshop 1999: • SPC Product Line Definition Workshop (Goddard Space Flight Center, Information Systems Center) 1998: • SPC Sixth Annual Member Forum • Software Reuse Adoption Informational Meeting (Goddard Space Flight Center, Information Systems Center) 1997: • SPC Fifth Annual Member Forum • SPC Fifth Annual Executive Roundtable OSMA SAS ‘01

  10. Account Registration • SPC “For Members Only” web site is an on-line repository of guidebooks, technical reports, training materials, briefings, trip reports, and a host of other assets useful in system software development and process improvement programs • NASA civil servants must register for an account to access the SPC “For Members Only” web site • Non-civil servants can register as a guest to access the on-line Catalog of Products and Services OSMA SAS ‘01
