“…Such adaptation and tailoring of Agile methods to suit the various development and organisational needs have been reported in the literature by XP, Scrum, software engineering (SE) and other Agile researchers and practitioners (Abrahamsson et al, 2003;Ambler 2004;Beck & Andres, 2004;Buglione & Abran, 2007;McMahon, 2006;Parsons et al , 2007).…”

“…A number of Agile methods are used in software development with various Agile techniques. Parsons et al (2007) report in their research into Agile methods in practice that practitioners seem to use a combination of techniques within an Agile method. They explore some of the techniques used within Agile methods to assess their benefits within an Agile process.…”

“…Although a number of empirical studies exist that explore the benefits of XP approaches, empirical methods exploring the benefits of including architectural design in agile methods are still immature. In the next section, we look at a study which reports on better outcomes by using a specific combination of Agile methods and techniques (Parsons, Ryu, & Lal, 2007), and on recent Agile work on Scrum, Agile architecture and empirical studies (Abrahamsson, 2009;Abrahamsson, Warsta, Siponen, & Ronkainen, 2003;Ambler, 2007Ambler, , 2009; Buglione & Abran, 2007;, 2009a, 2009bErdogmus, 2009;Evans, 2006;Hadar & Silberman, 2008;Hoffmeister et al, 2007;Kitchenhaum et al, 2002;Knoernschild, 2009;Korhonen, 2009;Lange, Chaudron, & Muskens, 2006;Margaria & Steffen, 2009;McMahon, 2006;Meier, 2009;Nord & Tomayko, 2006;Phillippus, 2009;Rajlich, 2006;Schwaber & Beedle, 2002;Sjoberg, Dyba, & Jorgensen, 2007). We also look at previous studies on students ' and academics' perception on Agile practices (Hughes & Bowyer, 2006, 2007Katira, Williams, & Osborne, 2005;Melnik & Maurer, 2004Meneely & Williams, 2009;Muller, Link, Sand, & Mahlpohl, 2004).…”

Agile software system development approaches have become popular since the late 1990s. Agile method has been increasingly adopted by big players in software industry such as IBM, Microsoft, Nokia and Philips with a view to improving quality and productivity. Such quality improvement goals must be measured during system development to validate the approach, and there is a need for more qualitative and quantitative studies in Agile development methods. Literature study shows that mainly XP approaches have been explored in empirical studies with reports on students' perceptions of XP in university case studies or with software development professionals. Management-oriented approaches, such as Scrum, and scaling up of the method using Agile architectures still require more detailed empirical study and evaluation. In this paper, we report on the evolution of our approach from Agile/XP, Agile/feature-driven, Agile /Scrum to Agile architecture/Scrum in the final year software engineering student project unit, and students' and supervisors' perceptions on quality and productivity from 35 student team projects sourced from the industry over eight years.

-The General Data Protection Regulation sees a fundamental shift in the way in which data is handled, stored and distributed. Massive uncertainty exists due to the UKs proposed exit of the European Union and this has resulted in a complacent, ignorant attitude to the changes within a large number of UK businesses and public sector organizations. This paper explores the impact of the GDPR, it's relation and changes from the 1998 Data Protection Act and the intentions of the UK government. In addition, a proposal for a software solution to manage a number of aspects of Data Protection within a Further Education College is discussed along with a report on its implementation.Discussion of the techniques and tools used to create the software solution and to manage the GDPR implementation using Agile Methodologies and Tools is featured.

“…Este estudo parte da hipótese que um processo híbrido, ao aliar as práticas de SAM do CMMI-DEV com os princípios e práticas ágeis, melhora a qualidade da gestão dos fornecedores no desenvolvimento de software. No entanto, ainda são escassas as evidências sobre como as metodologias ágeis e a gestão de fornecedores está sendo utilizadas em ambientes reais e quais são os seus impactos [19,37,38,39,40].…”

Resumo: A subcontratação de software é um processo de aquisição que significa delegar, por meio de contrato, o desenvolvimento de parte, ou totalidade do produto junto a fornecedores externos ao projeto. Vários estudos obtiveram sucesso com o uso da subcontratação nesse contexto. No entanto, as organizações continuam com problemas no planejamento, execução e gestão dos fornecedores dentro do processo de aquisição no desenvolvimento de software. Este estudo conduziu uma revisão sistemática da literatura com o intuito de explorar o atual estado da investigação sobre a relação entre Metodologias Ágeis e CMMI-DEV, no contexto da gestão do acordo de fornecedores. A revisão revelou a escassez de dados empíricos sobre a temática, apontando a necessidade de mais pesquisas sobre a combinação dessas abordagens. Palavras
