Software Data Collection Study. Volume VII. Compendium of Procedures and Parameters.

Abstract : This compendium supports the RADC Software Data Collection Study for providing an annotated compilation of recommended data collection forms, a suggested data base structure, and a summary list of definitions of the data parameters. A modular design approach was taken to the construction of the forms and the suggested data base structure. Data item priorities, collection frequency, and project size and complexity requirements were taken into account in defining modules. The system is deemed flexible in meeting the needs of future changes and expansions to the RADC repository operations. (Author)
