Software Development Optimization through Integrated Information Management: Conceptual Framework and Practical Implementation

Abstract

This bachelor thesis deals with the conception, prototypical development and introduction of a software solution that optimizes the software development process through the central aggregation and visualization of process-related data. In today’s digitalized world, software is becoming increasingly important, while the development of software is a complex undertaking. The multitude of tools used and the large amount of information make it difficult to maintain an overview and make well-founded decisions in a timely manner.

The developed software addresses this problem by normalizing, aggregating and presenting data from different sources in a user-friendly way. The concept is based on extensive literature research and the analysis of existing software solutions in this area.

As part of the practical implementation at Janitza electronics GmbH, the impact of the software on the development process is examined. A positive influence on the company’s development process is identified, particularly with regard to the improved overview and efficiency. This work thus lays a foundation for further research and development in the area of process optimization through integrated information management in software engineering.
