Methodology for ISO/IEC 29110 Profile Implementation in EPF Composer

Abstract

The article presents the ISO/IEC 29110 Profile Implementation Methodology that was developed to manage consistent implementation of individual ISO/IEC 29110 Profiles in the open-source content management tool Eclipse Process Framework Composer. Such an implementation enables effective managing of the standard and its publishing in the form of a web application that can be easily and efficiently used. This methodology represents an example of the usable outputs of the ISO/IEC 29110 standard being utilized in education and research in the Czech Republic. Its main elements described in this article can be also used for implementation purposes in other countries. First, the methodology structure is presented, followed by its individual elements, i.e. General Principles, Profile Structure, Profile Element Mapping, Implementation Conventions, EPF Composer Usage Guidelines, and Implementation Process. The evaluation of this methodology was performed during the implementation of the Entry Profile.
