Fields of application
ISO/IEC 29110 is applicable to Very Small Entities (VSEs). The life cycle processes described in ISO/IEC 29110 are not intended to preclude or discourage their use by organizations bigger than VSEs. However, certain issues faced by large organizations might not be covered by ISO/IEC 29110.
The life cycle processes defined in ISO/IEC 29110 can be used by VSEs when acquiring and using, as well as when creating and supplying, a software system. They can be applied at any level in a software system's structure and at any stage in the lifecycle. The processes described in ISO/IEC 29110 are not intended to preclude or discourage the use of additional processes that VSEs find useful.
This part of ISO/IEC 29110 introduces the major concepts for software engineering profiles for VSEs, and defines the terms common to the set of documents associated with VSE profiles.
It establishes the logic behind the definition and application of profiles. It specifies the elements common to all standardized profiles (structure, conformance, assessment) and introduces the taxonomy (catalogue) of ISO/IEC 29110 profiles.
This part of ISO/IEC 29110 is applicable to all profiles.
