Agile development approaches, such as Scrum, continue to gain importance in today's world. Since previous research has predominantly treated development approaches as a black box, we answer the call for empirical research concerning adoption of agile methods. The study's aim is to assess the adoption or adaption of Scrum principles at an e-commerce company. The findings of our in-depth single case...
An increasing amount of time is being spent at organizational meetings. One common type of meeting in software projects is the daily team meeting, which is the most important forum for coordinating and planning daily work. To better understand how software teams make decisions, communicate, and coordinate their work, we must uncover the micro-level interaction processes among the team members at these...
Numerous factors are involved when deciding when to implement which features in incremental software development. To facilitate a rational and efficient planning process, release planning models make such factors explicit and compute release plan alternatives according to optimization principles. However, experience suggests that industrial use of such models is limited. To investigate the feasibility...
A challenge with introducing agile software development is changing the way decisions are made. In this paper, we discuss the decision making processes used in Scrum teams. We found that a prerequisite for introducing Scrum is the alignment of decisions on a strategic, tactical and operational level. In addition, specialisation can be a barrier for the decision-making process on the operational level,...
While seemingly incompatible, combining large-scale global software development and agile practices is a challenge undertaken by many companies. Case study reports on the successful use of agile practices in small distributed projects already exist. How these practices could be applied to larger projects, however, remains unstudied. This paper reports a case study on agile practices in a 40-person...
