The Derived Method stdSEM

What are derived methods of SEM?
The derived methods of SEM "inherit" specific rules from the SEM® process model (SEM-VM) but are adapted to the specific requirements of the particular area or technology, e.g. for specific descriptions of required activities, for required documents and checklists. This brings SEM far closer to the actual project.
The following derived methods currently exist (or are in development):

  • stdSEM®: A general model for developing systems
  • ooSEM®: Development of systems using object orientation methods
  • eeSEM®: System development method for developing electronics, firmware and ASICs
  • SEM-HL: Development and/or procurement of software for the Semiconductor Group of Siemens AG Berlin / Munich.

What is stdSEM?
stdSEM is a general derived method of SEM-VM and is always to be used for projects where no other, more specific derived method is suitable. stdSEM can therefore be regarded as the "default derived method" of SEM.
Typical projects for stdSEM include:

  • Software development projects
  • Software maintenance
  • Non-SW projects (such as consulting, services, development of organizational solutions, etc.)
