Public Course Offering
Practical Software and Systems Measurement (PSM) Course
Philadelphia, PA, USA
20 - 21 Sept. 2005

Scope:  This course provides an introduction to the basic concepts of software measurement for project management purposes including measurement planning, project estimation, feasibility analysis, and status monitoring.

 Description:  This course is based on the book, Practical Software Measurement, J. McGarry, D. Card, et al. (Addison Wesley, 2002).  This book is an implementation guide for ISO/IEC Standard 15939: 2000, Software Measurement Process, edited by K. El-Emam and D. Card.  The standard defines two key concepts - the measurement information model and measurement process model.  This course explains how those models can be instantiated to support project management decision-making. 

 ISO/IEC 15939 has been adopted as the basis for the Measurement and Analysis Process Area of the CMMI as well as for PSM concepts.  Therefore, this course describes a strategy for satisfying the CMMI requirements for measurement at maturity levels 2 and 3, where the focus is on project management.
