SYSTEMATIC APPROACH IN CHANGE MANAGEMENT FOR ELICITATION AND PRIORITIZATION OF REQUIREMENTS IN AGILE (original) (raw)

Implementation of Change Management in Software Development by using Scrum Framework

This paper will focus on implementation of change management in Scrum software development framework. Scrum is one of the mostly used software development framework from the Agile software development methodology. Scrum is based on iterative and incremental process. It is suitable for unstable requirements. The use of Scrum proved to be beneficial due to tight schedule and loosely defined user requirements that often changed during the development. The aim of the paper to study implementation process of change management in Scrum. First part of paper gives detailed information of Scrum framework. The middle of the paper presented the organizational process of agile software development using Scrum. Finally, the paper point out key points for managing changes in Scrum implementation. The primary data collection method was interviews of the industry expertise. The secondary source of data is reference books and Internet articles. This paper will help to understand basics of Scrum software development framework and process of change management in developing projects by using Scrum framework .

A Review of Requirement Prioritization Techniques in Agile Software Development

2018

Prioritization is a crucial process in Requirement Change Management (RCM), as erroneous requirements prioritisation may increase the cost of development and lead to project failures. In Agile Software Development (ASD), requirement prioritization (RP) is difficult to maintain and requires more formal process.Changes in the priority list leads towards rework. Moreover, requirement prioritization in Agile is a difficult task due to its volatile nature. Ignorance of critical requirements during prioritization will result in numerous problems like poor quality of product and unsatisfied client. This paper presents a comprehensive review of RP by reviewing the strengths and weaknesses of existing RP techniques.This paper also provides information related to the current state-of-the-art on techniques and practices of RP and the research gaps in related works. These findings will contribute as inputs to construct a framework for selecting suitable RP techniques in ASD which can help softw...

Development and Evolution of Agile Changes in a World of Change

2021

Agile software development is an approach first codified in the Agile Manifesto in 2001. This was a statement of core values that became associated with a set of principles and practices. Key ideas include early and constant customer involvement, self-organizing teams that embrace change, rapid delivery of value, short timeboxed iterations coordinated by a shared list of items—a product backlog and driven by user stories and use cases, clean code, test-driven development, and continuous integration. The values, principles, and practices have permeated the technical and business world, translated and modified to fit many domains, affecting both production and management. But as with any good idea, agility can be misinterpreted, or used when inappropriate. Even a proper implementation must be tempered with good understanding of the domain, overall context, and appropriateness of selected agile practices, and modified to fit the enterprise, the domain, and the problem. In this paper, w...

Agile Change Management - How agile concepts can be used to manage change processes

In this thesis, we review current literature within the fields of change management and Agile. Afterward, we present and discuss our framework for change management based on agile concepts. This thesis is primarily written for readers with knowledge of change management, agile concepts, or both. However, it will also have value for anyone with an interest in the subject of agile change management. If this paper is interesting to you, I recommend that you check out this paper where we flesh out the framework, writing about characteristics and how actual companies have used such concepts to manage change: https://www.academia.edu/36747794/Agile\_Change\_Management\_Developing\_an\_agile\_change\_management\_framework\_based\_on\_Norwegian\_change\_management\_practises

Guideline for the Selection of Requirement Prioritization Techniques in Agile Software Development: An Empirical Research

International Journal of Recent Technology and Engineering

Prioritization is an essential process in any software development. Moreover in Agile, Requirement Prioritization (RP) needs more formal process because it is difficult to maintain priority after requirement change. Changes in the priority list are a continuous process in Agile Software Development (ASD) hence, the ignorance of critical requirements during prioritization will result several problems like unsatisfied client and poor quality of product. Moreover, there is little empirical knowledge on the state of the practice and contemporary problems exist in choosing best prioritization technique after the requirement change in Agile. To achieve this objective a guideline for the selection of RP technique is needed. Hence, the empirical research is used as a methodology for the evaluation of the requirement prioritization techniques practiced in Agile. The aim of this study is to determine RP techniques used in software industry and identify aspect or evaluation criteria to choose ...

Agile Development as a Change Management Approach in

Although many pilots with new eHealth products have been developed, only very few of these products reach widespread adoption within healthcare organisations. The literature mentions a wide range of bottlenecks for the acceptance of new technology in the healthcare industry, among which insufficient attention for change management and acceptance by intended users. In this paper, we argue that agile software development, with its practices for user involvement and product visibility, can be used as a change management approach in healthcare innovation projects. We compare agile methods with the change approach of Kotter (1995). As an illustration of our theoretical findings, we describe a development project of an innovative eHealth application to support the care for persons with intellectual disability.
