This report introduces and describes COTS acquisition process (CAP). This report discusses experience of using a tailored version of CAP in a Siemens Business unit. The process definition is given, a brief description of the activities is presented, and a description of the heuristics for effectiveness and efficiency integrated with the process is made.

This paper presents a software acquisition meta-model, called SAMM, for Commercial-O.-The-Shelf (COTS) software acquisition. This model is a meta-model in that it includes sections that use other, detailed, models for specific tasks. SAMM is a complete life-cycle model that begins with an end-user need and ends with software maintenance. The authors have adapted several other models in to SAMM and added several novel features appropriate for the acquisition of commercial software.

This paper, describes the authors efforts to support the modeling and simulation of processes associated with software system acquisition activities. Software acquisition is generally a multi-organization endeavor concerned with the funding, management, engineering, system integration, deployment and long-term support of large software systems. They first describe a language for modeling software acquisition processes at the architectural level. They then describe their approach supporting the simulation of software acquisition processes within a process architecture. In addition, they also introduce the design and prototyping of a Web-based environment which supports the modeling and simulation of acquisition process architectures.

This report presents basic concepts for program managers to use to incorporate measurement into the managing software development process. Contents include: software measurement process concepts, common program issues, constraints and limitations, data definition and collection (deciding which measures are required, collecting the measurement data, understanding the data, using the data), software measures for common software development issues (software size, effort, staff, milestone performance, development progress, software defects, computer resource utilization), and other sample analysis techniques (trend analysis, multiple metric relationship analysis, modeling input data analysis, thresholds and warning limits).

This document assembles best practices and presents practical advice on how to acquire the software components of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). The document presents a series of "themes" that serve as guiding principles for building a successful acquisition. Included are people themes of collaboration, team building, open communications, and active customer involvement, which have been likened to partnering; management themes of flexibility, "no silver bullets", and up-front planning; and system themes of "Don't build if you can buy" and "Take bite-size pieces".
