Abstract

No matter the development process or methodology, a software product must ultimately be released to a user in a readily consumable form. Different software products, from desktop applications to web services, may require different release processes, but each process must produce an artifact which meets an expected level of quality, and is relatively bug-free. We describe current research to model and quantify existing release processes, and an effort to prescribe improvements to those processes.
