Over the last two decades, agile methods have transformed and brought unique changes to software development practice by strongly emphasizing team collaboration, customer involvement, change tolerance. The success of for small, co-located teams has inspired organizations increasingly apply practices large-scale efforts. Since these are originally designed small teams, unprecedented challenges occur when introducing them at larger scale, such as inter-team coordination communication,...

This study describes the roles of architects in scaling agile frameworks with help a structured literature review. We aim to provide primary analysis 20 identified frameworks. Subsequently, we thoroughly describe three popular frameworks: Scaled Agile Framework, Large Scale Scrum, and Disciplined 2.0. After specifying main concepts frameworks, characterize enterprise, software, solution, information architects, as four Finally, discussion generalizable findings on role

Over the last two decades, agile methods have been adopted by an increasing number of organizations to improve their software development processes. In contrast traditional methods, place more emphasis on flexible processes than detailed upfront plans and heavy documentation. Since proved be successful at team level, large are now aiming scale enterprise level adopting applying so-called scaling frameworks such as Large-Scale Scrum (LeSS) or Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe). Although there is a...

The microservice architecture style is currently receiving much attention in both industry and academia. Many companies are already using microservices with great success the advantages of this architectural discussed numerous papers. However, also introduce a high level complexity new challenges regarding to Enterprise Architecture (EA) model maintenance. We conducted survey among 58 IT practitioners German market analyze status quo adaption what organizations face while documenting...

Durch die breite Verfügbarkeit von Smartphones haben Apps bereits in vielen Lebensbereichen Einzug gehalten. In der Notfallmedizin kann durch einen Mikrokosmos an eben solchen Anwendungen vor allen Dingen eine logistische Optimierung, schnellere Informationen und bessere Informationserhebung erreicht werden. Dieser Artikel gibt Überblick Ausblick zu Entwicklungen Möglichkeiten diesem Feld.

The documentation of IT landscapes is a challenging task which still performed mainly manually. Technology and software development trends like agile practices microservice-based architectures exacerbate the endeavours to keep up-to-date. Recent research efforts for automating this have not addressed runtime data gathering architecture remain unclear regarding proper algorithms visualization support. In paper, we want close gap by presenting two that 1) discover landscape based on historical...

Agile software engineering practices aim at unifying development (Dev) and operation (Ops) in order to quickly release new gather feedback on features the latest version. The loop gets closed mostly after releases are deployed production. During development, engineers do not receive whether their changes still aligned with requirements formalized concept. This increases risk of removing implemented code decreases productivity. In this paper, we propose a tool for closing each continuous...
