Optimum Measures Set Decision (OMSD) Model
This step results in the following two outputs regarding the questions:
•
Respective categories of questions
•
Associated attributes depicting their behavior and relation with environment.
These identified attributes facilitate in Decision Making (Step 5) later on. At least one
attribute is identified for each question because these attributes represent its respective
questions in decision making. It is possible that one question can be related to more
than one attribute and one attribute can be associated with more than one question.
These dependencies are also identified and used later in the decision making process.
2.3 Measures Selection
The main aim of this step is the selection of all possible measures from a 'Measures
Pool' using identified categories attributes and measures selection criteria (explained
below). This step is conducted at the third level of GQM when the measures are
identified.
