Research in Practice Stage
Update for Accepted Speakers:
It is expected that IEEE will be able to accept your papers during the last week of May. Please check back to confirm that IEEE is ready to accept your paper. Thanks!
This stage aims to examine contemporary research into the effectiveness of methods, process, techniques and tools as well as taking a look at emerging issues and trends in agile and lean development. The Research in Practice stage of the Agile Conference focuses on bringing the results of rigorous scientific research on agile software development to practitioners and researchers. We aim at bridging the gap between research and practice, by presenting case studies, action research studies, experiments, surveys and literature reviews with focus on practical implications. Some research from this event will be considered for inclusion in a special issue of a leading journal in the field.
Questions this stage will attempt to answer:
- What can we learn from agile software development efforts to date?
- How can we apply or adapt our methods for emerging technologies and environments e.g. Cloud computing
- What are the theoretical underpinnings of agile and lean development, and the agile manifesto?
- What can software developers learn from other research fields e.g manufacturing, management, psychology?
- What topics should be researched in the future?
Review Process
The Research in Practice Stage has a separate review process for submissions than all other stages. Please refer to the Research in Practice Submission Process.
