XP Agile Universe 2004 Call for Contributions
XP Agile Universe 2004: The Role of Extreme Programming and Agile Methods
as Mainstream Software Development Techniques
Calgary, Alberta, Canada
August 15 - 18, 2004
www.agileuniverse.com
mainキstream: (P) Pronunciation Key (mnstrm) n. The prevailing current
of thought, influence, or activity.
What does it mean for Extreme Programming and other Agile Methods to be
mainstream software development techniques? What does it take to move them
to a level of acceptance that well transcends the current contexts.
Following the success of the previous three conferences, XP/Agile Universe
2004 will continue to transform the prevalent thinking in the software
development community, targeting both advocates and skeptics, through
learning, experiencing, and sharing. To that end, we are soliciting
proposals and papers in several categories. Topics of interest include, but
are not limited to:
Bang for the Buck
Return on Investment
Management of Agile Projects
Measurement in Agile Projects
Agility and Risk Management
Agile Testing and Quality Assurance
Contracting in Agile Projects
Empirical Results and Validation
Getting and Maintaining Agility
Cultural and Organizational Issues
Scalability of Agile Methods
Teamwork and Collaboration
Customer Involvement
Knowledge Management
Adoption, Education, and Training
