Abstract:

The Software Engineering Institute SEI annually undertakes several line-funded exploratory new starts LENS projects. These projects serve to 1 support feasibility studies investigating whether further work by the SEI would be of potential benefit and 2 support further exploratory work to determine whether there is sufficient value in eventually funding the feasibility study work as an SEI initiative. Projects are chosen based on their potential to mature andor transition software engineering practices, develop information that will help in deciding whether further work is worth funding, and set new directions for SEI work. This report describes the LENS projects that were conducted during fiscal year 2011 October 2010 through September 2011.
