Capability Maturity Model (CMM):

An organization may be assessed by an (Software Engineering
Institute) SEI-Authorized Lead Appraiser, and will then be
able to claim that they have been assessed as CMM level X,
where X is from 1 to 5.

The SEI maintains a list of organizations assessed for CMM
since 2006.

There are five levels defined along the continuum of the
CMM, and, according to the SEI: "Predictability,
effectiveness, and control of an organization's software
processes are believed to improve as the organization moves
up these five levels.

1.Initial (chaotic, ad hoc, individual heroics) - the
starting point for use of a new process.

2.Repeatable - the process is able to be used repeatedly,
with roughly repeatable outcomes.

3.Defined - the process is defined/confirmed as a standard
business process, and decomposed to levels 0, 1 and 2 (the
latter being Work Instructions).

4.Managed - the process is managed according to the metrics
described in the Defined stage.

5.Optimized - process management includes deliberate process
optimization/improvement.

At maturity level 5, processes are concerned with addressing
statistical common causes of process variation and changing
the process (for example, to shift the mean of the process
performance) to improve process performance. This would be
done at the same time as maintaining the likelihood of
achieving the established quantitative process-improvement
objectives.

The CMM model proved useful to many organizations, but its
application in software development has sometimes been
problematic. Applying multiple models that are not
integrated within and across an organization could be costly
in terms of training, appraisals, and improvement
activities. The Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI)
project was formed to sort out the problem of using multiple
CMMs.

For software development processes, the CMM has been
superseded by Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI),
though the CMM continues to be a general theoretical process
capability model used in the public domain.

Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI):

CMMI according to the SEI helps "integrate traditionally
separate organizational functions, set process improvement
goals and priorities, provide guidance for quality
processes, and provide a point of reference for appraising
current processes."

CMMI currently addresses three areas of interest:

(1) Product and service development — CMMI for Development
(CMMI-DEV),

(2) Service establishment, management, and delivery — CMMI
for Services (CMMI-SVC), and

(3) Product and service acquisition — CMMI for Acquisition
(CMMI-ACQ).

PLEASE PLEASE READ IT FULLY & HELP ME... IT IS VERY URGENT.... Hi all, I passed my engg in May,2006 and joined an IT Company in May,2007 ,one year later as a fresher.Now I have almost 9 months of so-called experience.... I already have a fake experience certificate of 11 months given by a small company but they dont have such projects which I can show in my resume... Becoz of some personal problems I am planning to leave my current IT company and to give interviews in companies in or near my native place during May-June 2008 after the completion of 1 year in the current company... So one problem is that I want to show a project in my resume for my fake 11 months experience in interviews with explaining my work and another major problem is that out of these 9 months in my current company,2.5 months I was given training and then out of the rest 6.5 months, I worked only for 1.5 months as a TESTER that too for a small internal project...So I dont have any actual work experience in my project (insurance-specific)... and I am planning to show total experience of 23-24 months in those interviews which I'll appear now........ So I want the complete details of any 2 projects to show in my resume and to explain/answer in the interviews...One for 11 months' fake experience and another LIFE INSURANCE-specific(or like that) project for my current company's experience...As for my current company's experience in the resume,I can give the details of that fake INSURANCE project keeping my original client name and project name intact to avoid any possible problem in future...NO MATTER WHETHER THE PROJECT IS LARGE OR SMALL....But it should look like covering 9-10 months of my service in the company or it should look like that atleast for most of the time for my duration in the project,I was working(atleast for 6-7 months)....But it should be very easy... :-) So I want you guys to help me in providing me with 2 projects, one of them must be a LIFE INSURANCE type project.....Also the projects should be easy to understand and easy to explain my testing work in interviews...I want to present myself as a TESTER in those interviews..... My email id is mysticamagic84@gmail.com...Also give me all the possible,in depth and tricky questions related to the projects which U'll send me.... U can also give me the addresses of websites providing such fake projects.... Please help me becoz anyhow I'll have to shift to any company in or near my native place in May-June... Kindly help me in this problem...It is very urgent..... please let me know in reply to this post if U have sent anything in my email id... :-)
