Abstract

The organizations and people are demanding more and better software products and services, which implies adequate processes for its development. In the context of the software industry, there are two models, the CMMI-DEV and ISO/IEC 12207 that are influencing it. Though, they are evolving separately, recurrently they have been compared to determine its coverage (in both directions). In this study is analyzed the results of those comparisons (partials and completed) to determine if the models ISO/IEC 12207 and CMMI-DEV converge at processes level. This study identified eight articles where the comparison is carried out between ISO/IEC 12207 and CMMI-DEV. The results show that technique most used is the mapping comparisons between the models and according to the analyzed studies is not possible to determine whether there is convergence in the time. However, we found some items and criterions for use in comparisons.
