The Latest Publications from the SEI
CMMI , Common Operating Platform Environments (COPEs) , SEI Research No Comments »By Doug Schmidt,
Chief Technology Officer
As part of an ongoing effort to keep you informed about the latest work of SEI technologists, I will keep you apprised of SEI-related work that’s published each month as SEI technical reports and notes. This post includes a listing of each report, author/s, and links where reports published in March can be accessed on the SEI website. The first report, A Framework for Evaluating Common Operating Environments, is based on a recent SEI blog posting and is an area I’m actively working on at the SEI. As always, we welcome your feedback on our work.
Large-scale DoD acquisition programs are increasingly being
developed atop reusable software platforms—known as Common Operating
Environments (COEs) —that provide applications and end-users with many
net-centric capabilities, such as cloud computing or Web 2.0
applications, including data-sharing, interoperability, user-centered
design, and collaboration. Selecting an appropriate COE is critical to
the success of acquisition programs, yet the processes and methods for
evaluating COEs had not been clearly defined. I explain below how the
SEI developed a Software Evaluation Framework and applied it to help
assess the suitability of COEs for the US Army.
