Robert Stoddard - Software Engineering Institute, Mini-Tutorial for Building CMMI Process Performance ModelsMay 19, 2009 Location: University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN, USA Special Meeting Notice Twin-SPIN We have reserved parking at the Washington Avenue Ramp! Meeting Announcement: EE/CS Building
Directions: A map is available at This Month's Meeting: Program Manager: Paul Kraska Topic: "Mini-Tutorial for Building CMMI Process Performance Models" Speaker: Robert Stoddard - Software Engineering Institute Abstract: This mini - tutorial targets individuals who will be developing and using process performance models as part of an overall CMMI High Maturity improvement framework. As the community becomes more aware of the detailed definition and characterization of CMMI process performance models, there is a need to provide additional guidance on the process or "model" of how one properly builds a process performance model. The author combined varied and in-depth modeling experiences to deliver a tutorial on this subject for the 2009 SEPG NA from which this talk is drawn. Process performance modeling is also referred to in a handful of courses within the SEI training portfolio. Specifically, it receives some treatment in the CMMI Introduction and Intermediate courses and much more in-depth conceptual treatment in the Understanding CMMI High Maturity Practices (UCHMP) course. Lastly, basic process performance modeling techniques are taught in the Improving Process Performance using Six Sigma (IPPSS) course while advanced process performance modeling techniques are taught in the Designing Products and Processes using Six Sigma (DPPSS) course. Speaker Bio: Robert W. Stoddard currently serves as a Senior Member of the Technical Staff at the Software Engineering Institute. Robert architected and designed several leading measurement and CMMI High Maturity courses including: "Understanding CMMI High Maturity Practices", "Improving Process Performance using Six Sigma", and "Designing Products and Processes using Six Sigma". Robert earned a BS in Business, an MS in Systems Management and is a certified Motorola Six Sigma Master Black Belt. Robert also serves as the Vice Chair of Technology for the ASQ Software Division Council and as an elected member of the IEEE Reliability Engineering Society Adcom. Twin-SPIN Mission Statement: The Twin-SPIN software process improvement network (SPIN) is a regional organization established in January of 1996 as a forum for the free and open exchange of software process improvement experiences and ideas. Representatives from industry, government, academia, other professional organizations, and consultants are welcome to participate. Our mission is to help sustain commitment and enhance skills in the area of software process improvement through an active program of networking and mutual support. The organization strives to serve as a source of educational and experiential information for its members, other SPIN organizations, and the general community of software professionals. Meetings are normally held on the 1st Thursday of each month from 5:45-8:00 p.m. Twin-SPIN is a non-profit organization and is sponsored by the University of Minnesota Center for Software Engineering (UMSEC).
