Motivators and Demotivators of Agile Software Development: Elicitation and Analysis
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Computer Science & Applications - Year 2017, Vol 8, Issue 12
Abstract
Motivators and demotivators are key factors in software productivity. Both are also critical to the success of Agile software development. Literature reports very diverse and multidimensional critical factors affecting the quality of Agile software development, thus, there is a need to extract and map required factors systematically for wider implications. The classification of anticipated factors and sub-factors is also desired to simplify their identification and definition. The reported research focuses on the systematic mapping of motivators and demotivators in Agile software development. A systematic mapping literature study has been performed to shed light on scattered critical factors for software engineers, affecting productivity and understanding of Agile viewpoints. Additionally, this study categorizes the extracted motivators as organization, people and technical. Whereas, the sub-factors’ categorization has been concentrated, which contributes to the motivators at grass root level. This research alleviates the problems of identification, definition and classification of the critical factors in agile software development for both practitioners and researchers.

The Proposal of a Distributed Algorithm for Solving the Multiple Constraints Parking Problem
The parking problem in big cities has become one of the key causes of the city traffic congestion, driver frustration and air pollution.So to avoid these problems, parking monitoring is an important solution. Recently ma...
An Improved Pulmonary Nodule Detection Scheme based on Multi-Layered Filtering and 3d Distance Metrics
This paper proposed a computer-aided detection (CAD) system to automatically detect pulmonary nodules from thoracic computed tomography (CT) images. Automatically detect pulmonary nodules is a difficult job because of th...
Numerical Simulation on Damage Mode Evolution in Composite Laminate
The present work follows numerous numerical simulation on the stress field analysis in a cracked cross-ply laminate. These results lead us to elaborate an energy criterion. This criterion is based on the computation of t...
Electrooculogram Signals Analysis for Process Control Operator Based on Fuzzy c-Means
Biomedical signals of human can reflect the body's task load, fatigue and other psychological information. Compared with other biomedical signals, electrooculogram (EOG) has higher amplitude, less interference, and is ea...
