Agile software development relies on self-organized teams, underlining the importance of individual responsibility. How developers take responsibility and build ownership are influenced by external factors such as architecture and…
Software architecture decision-making is critical to the success of a software system as software architecture sets the structure of the system, determines its qualities, and has far-reaching consequences throughout the system life cycle.…
Sustainability is a promise by agile development, as it is part of both the Agile Alliance's and the Scrum Alliance's vision. Thus far, not much has been delivered on this promise. This paper explores the Agile Manifesto and points out how…
Introduction: Digital products increasingly reshape industries, influencing human behavior and decision-making. However, the software development teams developing these systems often lack diversity, which may lead to designs that overlook…
In this research paper of secure software systems, authors have discussed what the proper development process is when it comes to creating a secure software, which will be suited for developers and relevent stakeholders alike. Secure…
Software is a field of rapid changes: the best technology today becomes obsolete in the near future. If we review the graduate attributes of any of the software engineering programs across the world, life-long learning is one of them. The…
Context: Existing knowledge in agile software development suggests that individual competency (e.g. skills) is a critical success factor for agile projects. While assuming that technical skills are important for every kind of software…
Many tools have been created for measuring the agility of software teams, thus creating a saturation in the field. Three agile measurement tools were selected in order to validate whether they yield sim-ilar results. The surveys of the…
Agile software development has been shaped by the interplay between academic research and industrial practice for over two decades, yet notable gaps persist between both domains. This paper focuses on three research-practice gaps: the…
Often software engineering classes have the student concentrate on designing and planning the project but stop short of actual student team development of code. This leads to criticism by employers of new graduates that they are missing…
The paper describes the need for and goals of tool-integration within software development processes. In particular we focus on agile software development but are not limited to. The integration of tools and data between the different…
Software Engineering is the process of a systematic, disciplined, quantifiable approach that has significant impact on large-scale and complex software development. Scores of well-established software process models have long been adopted…
