Summary

A large number of organizations are trying to acquire CMMI certification for software process improvement for their organization. But, the existing solutions are used only in a limited fashion in specific process area. Because of this, created assets in each solution hard to utilize and reuse in software process improvement. One of reason is that they do not have specialized repository to support CMMI.

In this paper, we suggest SIR(SPIC Integration Repository) prototyping system for effective management and support of heterogeneous assets and tools of SPIC(Software Process Improvement Center in Korea). We provide the main design and modeling issues for organizing and managing of SIR for software process improvement. The most important advantage of SIR is flexibility and portability. SIR will provide API that is suitable to the manipulation of the SPICs meta-assets, related tools and models for helping the small and medium enterprise to achieve the CMMI.
