Demystifies the CMMI (Capability Maturity Model Integration), introducing students to the key points behind this initiative. This book includes material in layman's language to meet a wider variety of reader's needs, but has not lost any of the technical content.
When the first edition of this book was published in 2001, CMMI (Capability Maturity Model Integration) was largely viewed as a standard that was "on the horizon." In the past two years, CMMI has -- pardon the pun -- matured greatly. CMMI is now a recognized and widely-adopted model. This new edition reflects CMMI version 1.1 (the first edition was based on version 1.0). The book contains expanded coverage on the realized return on investment that can be attained through process improvement with CMMI, and the pioneer case studies have been replaced with broader CMMI-specific experience that will enable the reader to more easily adopt this model. The authors also share their understanding of how the CMMI will continue to adapt and remain relevant for years to come. The result is a handy book that is informative, useful, and appropriate to the reader's needs.

Dennis M. Ahern is an advisory engineer at Northrop Grumman Corporation. Previously, he taught at Yale University and the University of Maryland. He was the deputy project manager of the CMMI Product Development Team and a co-leader of the CMMI Editor Team. He is also an author of CMMI. Aaron Clouse is an engineering fellow at Raytheon Company. He was a member of the CMMI Editor Team and is an author of CMMI. Richard Turner, a research professor in engineering management and systems engineering at the George Washington University, approaches balanced software development and acquisition with broad industry and government experience and a skeptical attitude toward best practices. In support of the U.S. Department of Defense, he is responsible for identifying and transitioning new software technology into the development and acquisition of complex, software-intensive defense systems. Dr. Turner was on the original author team for Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) and is coauthor off CMMI Distilled, Second Edition (Addison-Wesley, 2004).
