Appendix D. Glossary
The glossary defines the basic terms used in CMMI models. Glossary entries are typically multiple-word terms consisting of a noun and one or more restrictive modifiers. (Some exceptions to this rule account for one-word terms in the glossary.)
To formulate definitions appropriate for CMMI, we consulted multiple sources. We first consulted the Merriam-Webster OnLine dictionary (www.m-w.com) and the source models (i.e., CMMI v1.2, EIA 731, SW-CMM v2, draft C, and IPD-CMM v0.98). We also consulted other standards as needed, including the following:
• ISO 9000 [ISO 2000]
• ISO/IEC 12207 [ISO 1995]
• ISO/IEC 15504 [ISO 2006]
• ISO/IEC 15288 [ISO 2002a]
• ISO/IEC 15939 [ISO 2002b]
• ISO 20000-1 [ISO 2005]
• IEEE [IEEE 1991] ...
