Modern, collaborative software development projects are highly supported by a variety of tools. Aside from the pure code development that is nowadays well supported by integrated development environments (IDEs) such as Eclipse, also other activities receive increasing attention in the matter of tool support. Recent improvements in tool support for source code management (SCM), process managemen...

Purpose: The goal of the article is to create a model whose management method will take intoaccount individual needs (client, entrepreneur), implementing standards global economicsustainability. created allows defining Sustainable Development Goals in terms ofthe environmental dimension circular economy.Methodology/Approach: For purpose, economy was used as improvingthe chances achieving goals ...

Future developments for enterprise process management must evolve from the current systems based on rigid, workflow based processes into context-aware, agile dynamic structures, which exploit local adaptability. In this idea paper, we define two forms of process agility. To enable these forms of agility, we present our vision of context-aware business process management based on declarative mod...

Research has shown that organisations are moving towards agile manufacturing in response to a rapidly changing business environment. Agility is the competence of an organisation to respond to unpredictable business forces. This requires that an organisation develop dynamic management systems that are able to support continuous change. This paper examines systems thinking and proposes a holistic...

This paper describes a research-in-progress that explores the applicability and implications of open innovation in a multiple-project environment that employs agile approaches to information systems development. In doing so, it seeks to reveal any resemblance the open innovation model has with the agile process, while simultaneously investigating the challenges of such an approach for project m...

Traditional project management methods are based on scientific principles that would be considered “normal science,” but lacks any theoretical basis for this approach. [31, 32, 63] These principles make use of linear step– wise refinement of the project management processes based on a planning–as– management paradigm. Plans made in this paradigm and adjusted by linear feedback methods cannot co...

Business Process Management (BPM) has become one of the most important management disciplines in recent years. In reality, however, many technical process improvement projects failed in the past and the expected benefits could not be established. In the meantime, the agile software development movement made massive progress in contrast to classic waterfall approaches which are still the foundat...

This paper proposes a collaborative approach to aspects of IT service management (ITSM) for agile information technology landscapes composed of technically knowledgeable users and fast changing requirements. The cost-intensive and timeconsuming tasks of building and maintaining a configuration management database (CMDB) are accomplished in a distributed, collaborative way in a semantic wiki in ...

Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) has a history of research related to software development processes and productivity over the last 40 years. Recently software has penetrated into almost every industry, thus every company is a software company now. Parallel to the history of ALM process models, at first it was considered synonymous to waterfall. However with the questioning of the success...
