Abstract

For the effective promotion of software process improvement (SPI) activities in the word, it is very important to establish a community beyond various social/organizational barriers. Like the auto-mobiles industry, to share various knowledge/experiences is to evolve one’s own industry. To promote SPI activities in Japan, we established Japan SPI Consortium (JASPIC) in October 2000. In this paper, we describe the status of SPI practice in Japan through our experience in various activities in JASPIC, analyze current issues from software engineering point of view, and make some proposals for future action.
