CMMI for Development, Version 1.2 - CMMI for Development (CMMI-DEV), Version 1.2 is an upgrade of CMMI-SE/SW/IPPD/SS, Version 1.1. The focus of the CMMI Version 1.2 effort is on improving the quality of CMMI products and the consistency of how they are applied. This report represents the model portion of the CMMI Product Suite. Other portions of the CMMI Product Suite include the SCAMPI A appraisal method and the Introduction to CMMI training course.
CMMI® for Acquisition, Version 1.2 - "Acquisition Verification" and "Acquisition Validation" are two Process Areas in the Software Engineering Institute (SEI) Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) for Acquisition. Specifically, these are Engineering Process Areas for CMMI Acquisition Level 3, "Defined".
The purpose of Acquisition Validation (AVAL) is to demonstrate that an acquired product or service fulfills its intended use when placed in its intended environment. The purpose of Acquisition Verification (AVER) is to ensure that selected work products meet their specified requirements.
CrossTalk - CrossTalk, The Journal of Defense Software Engineering is an approved Department of Defense journal. CrossTalk's mission is to encourage the engineering development of software in order to improve the reliability, sustainability, and responsiveness of our warfighting capability and to inform and educate readers on up-to-date policy decisions and new software engineering technologies
CrossTalk is published monthly by the Software Technology Support Center (STSC) at Hill AFB, Utah. Software reliability is among the topics covered in past issues.

"This is the home page of the series of conferences that is now called the International Requirements Engineering Conference (RE). This series started as two alternating biennial conference series. One series, in odd years starting in 1993, was the International Symposium on Requirements Engineering (RE). The other series, in even years starting in 1994, was the International Conference on Requirements Engineering (ICRE). The two series merged in 2002 with the holding of the Joint International Requirements Engineering Conference (RE'02), so named to announce the merger. However, starting in 2003, the conference series's name settled to simply ``International Requirements Engineering Conference (RE)''."
Open Process Framework - Open Process Framework is an on-line repository (class library) of over 1,100 state-of-the-art reusable method components is intended to be used to engineer endeavor-specific methods for developing and operating software-intensive systems. OPF’s reusable method components are designed to be easily tailorable by the user, and the entire repository of method components is continually being iterated and extended with new classes by its existing user base.
Requirements Engineering is one of the many topics addressed.
