Relating the SPICE framework and SEI approach to software process assessment
In June 1993, an international effort (SPICE) was launched to develop a standard for software process assessment. An important goal of this effort is to harmonize existing process assessment approaches. This paper describes and characterizes SEI and SPICE software process assessment work and then highlights the similarities and differences. The following aspects are considered-underlying philosophy, goals, scope/domain, rating processes, underlying reference model, tailorability and impact on the international software community.
