Call for Research Papers
The Agile Development Conference is an integrated, 4-day conversation about
techniques and technologies, attitudes and policies, research and
experience, the management and development sides of agile software
development. The agile approach focuses on delivering business value early
in the project lifetime and being able to incorporate late breaking
requirements changes by accentuating the use of rich, informal communication
channels and frequent delivery of running, tested systems, and attending to
the human component of software development.
We invite you to share your knowledge and experience via the submission of
Research Papers for the 2004 Agile Development Conference. Research Papers
present significant contributions to the field of agile software
development, advancing the state of the art, influencing the framework of
thought in the field, or, perhaps, criticizing current agile development
methodologies in a reasoned fashion.
The following are example paper topics, but submissions are by no means
limited to themes listed here:
- Research on new, or existing, agile development (AD) methodologies and
approaches
- Case studies involving agile development or a particular technique, tool,
or approach
- Tools for AD, computer-based and others
- Does AD scale? To development in the large? To safety-critical,
life-critical, mission-critical systems?
- Critical comparisons or evaluations of alternative AD methodologies
- Business analyses - e.g., is AD cost-effective and justified?
- Agile Management
- People aspects of AD
- Relationships between AD and user-centered design (UCD)
- Patterns and AD; Patterns for AD
- Introducing AD into existing IT organizations
Authors are invited to submit papers online by January 31, 2004 at:
