Using NIMSAD meta framework in three software engineering contexts

The 8^th International Conference on Business Information Systems, Poznan Univ., Poznan, Poland, 2005.

Abstract

NIMSAD is a relatively well known meta framework for analyzing methodologies. 18 method evaluations on three important software engineering contexts were performed. Component-based software development methodologies, software testing in object-oriented software engineering methods, and software modernization estimation methods were evaluated. NIMSAD provides 18 evaluative elements. This paper presents an analysis of NIMSAD and gathers experiences of its use.
