Resumen

Very small entities are gaining relevance with the emergence of the ISO/IEC 29110, and with its lightweight approach. However there are still facing some barriers for its adoption, and some VSEs have abandoned their software process improvement initiatives. This paper provides a survival analysis of very small entities when they are implementing an improvement initiative. This study is based on non-parametric (e.g. Kaplan-Meier) and semi-parametric models (e.g. Cox models), and it is useful for practitioners in order to identify the ideal duration of an improvement initiative. These survival functions are applied to our database containing 90 software process improvement initiatives.
