Project Planningmeasures in CMMI

Computer information project planning is one of the most important activities in the modern softwaredevelopment process. Without an objective and realistic plan of software project, the development ofsoftware process cannot be managed effectively.Thisresearchwill identify general measures for thespecific goals and its specific practices of Project PlanningProcess Area in Capability Maturity ModelIntegration (CMMI). CMMI is developedin USAby Software Engineering Institute (SEI) inCarnegieMellonUniversity. CMMI is a framework for assessment and improvement of computer informationsystems. The procedure we used to determine the measures is to apply the Goal Questions Metrics (GQM)approach to the three specific goals and its fourteen specific practices of Project PlanningProcess Area inCMMI
