Legacy Applications
/in project control /by ISBSGThis short paper examines a high-level business case to to rebuild a Cobol legacy application in Java. ISBSG Data, for similar Java projects, provides metrics for: cost, effort, maintenance and support. This information is used as the basis for the business case.
Cobol Projects
/in productivity /by ISBSGWe examine number of COBOL Projects submitted to the ISBSG Repository, since the year 2000. The median Project Delivery Rates are compared to determine whether there has been an in increase in productivity for COBOL projects.
Output Based Contracting
/in project control, recommended /by ISBSGIn this short paper, we explain the way ISBSG data can be used to contract application development teams based on output instead of the usual Time & Materials method.
ISBSG Maintenance and Support Data
/in maintenance and support /by ISBSGIt is believed that software maintenance activities represents somewhere between 65 and 85 percent of an application’s total ownership cost. This study focuses on ISBSG’s Maintenance and Support data. It identifies maintenance trends for various activities.
Measuring Value Added
/in project control /by ISBSGWith agile, you choose to develop the functionality that provides the most value for the customer, post-development. What functionality does the customer receive and how can it be measured?
Testing Process Assessment
/in benchmarking /by ISBSGOne of the biggest problems in software development is the quality assurance of the delivered product. This depends directly on the testing process used. See how to improve testing processes with the use of market data.
No-Code Low-Code
/in productivity /by ISBSG“Low Code/No Code” is a new development paradigm. It shortens re-development times (and costs) when an organization decides to move software system/application from old, legacy architecture to a newer, more maintainable one.
Data for Decisions
/in project control /by ISBSGLearn how ISBSG data is used in practice to make better decisions regarding Application Development related issues.
Using ISBSG Data to Measure Team Performance
/in productivity, recommended /by ISBSGCalculate key ‘market average’ metrics from ISBSG data. These metrics can then be used to benchmark your team’s performance.
Agile Control
/in agile /by ISBSGISBSG partner, IDC, examines how application development teams can incorporate objective metrics into their performance.
Productivity per Industry Sector
/in productivity, recommended /by ISBSGLearn more about the productivity of medium-sized projects in various industry sectors.
Productivity Improvements for Java Projects
/in productivity /by ISBSGJava is a powerful, programming language used for many applications. This short paper compares the productivity of different-sized Java projects.
Defect Density
/in maintenance and support /by ISBSGThis short paper analyses defect data for Java and .NET projects. It investigates whether project size and age impact defect density.
Performance Metrics in Contracts
/in productivity /by ISBSGBy incorporating standard metrics into IT contracts, it becomes possible to measure the performance of the vendor. Find out more about the key performance indicators (KPIs) that can be used in IT contracts, in our ISBSG short paper.
Productivity of .NET projects
/in productivity /by ISBSG.NET is a popular developer platform used to build applications. .NET productivity data from the ISBSG Repository is analysed in a short paper.
