Global Foundation for Democracy and Development (GFDD) and Fundación Global Democracia y Desarrollo (FUNGLODE), together with the Instituto Tecnólogico de las Américas (ITLA – Technological Institute of the Americas) will organize the conference, “Best Practices and Process Models for Software and
Engineering,” to be presented by Dr. Hanna Oktaba of the Department of Science at the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM – National University of Mexico).

 

Oktaba obtained her doctorate from the University of Varsovia in Poland. She has been a professor at the
Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México since 1983. She is a specialist in Software Engineering, Technology Oriented Objectives, Software Process Models and Process Improvement. She is the founder of Asociación Mexicana para la Calidad en Ingeniería de Software (AMCIS – Mexican Association for Quality in Software Engineering) and the Sociedad Mexicana en Ciencia de la Computación (SMCC – Mexican Society of Computer
Science). Since 2002, she has been in charge of MoProSoft, EvalProSoft and Control Test programs that have received support from the Mexican Ministry of Economy’s PROSOFT Program. As a result of these projects, in October 2005, Mexican guidelines for the software industry based in MoProSoft and EvalProSoft were approved. Since 2006, she has served as a representative of Mexico before Work Group 24 of ISO/JTC/SC7 Software and System Engineering, which seeks to generate guidelines
