    Generic tools and individual research needs in the Digital Humanities – Can agile development help?
    (INFORMATIK 2019: 50 Jahre Gesellschaft für Informatik – Informatik für Gesellschaft (Workshop-Beiträge), 2019) Heyer, Gerhard; Kahmann, Christian; Kantner, Cathleen
    Many Digital Humanities research projects from many different target disciplines regularly encounter the same recurring key problems and key procedures such as preprocessing, standard text analytics, and visualization, which would be very time consuming if conducted without DH tools. This calls for the use of generic platforms. However, there is a trade-off, since different researchers from many different disciplines look at their objects from different theoretical perspectives. This raises the general question how we can deal with this very typical conflict, and whether agile development might be a suitable development method to cope with it. By addressing this question, we report on an experience during a DH summer school as a condensed experiment in dealing with this trade-off using the iLCM as a generic platform. In summary, although we have not arrived at a procedural solutions for balancing individual user needs and generic problems which call for generic tools, our summer academy experience well illustrates the high potential of a software eco-system supporting the approach of agile development in Digital Humanities, and may help to better understand the role of generic software tools and their role in DH.

    Improved underspecification for model-based testing in agile development
    (FM+AM`2010 – Second International Workshop on Formal Methods and Agile Methods, 2010) Faragó, David
    Since model-based testing (MBT) and agile development are two major approaches to increase the quality of software, this paper considers their combination. After motivating that strongly integrating both is the most fruitful, the demands on MBT for this integration are investigated: The model must be underspecifyable and iteratively refineable and test generation must efficiently handle this. The theoretical basis and an example for such models is given. Thereafter, a new method for MBT is introduced, which can handle this more efficiently, i.e., can better cope with nondeterminism and also has better guidance in the model traversal. Hence it can be used in agile development, select more revealing tests and achieve higher coverage and reproducibility.

    Product Roadmap Formats for an Uncertain Future: A Grey Literature Review
    (Software Management 2021, 2021) Trieflinger, Stefan; Münch, Jürgen; Bogazköy, Emre; Eißler, Patrick; Schneider, Jan; Roling, Bastian
    Product Roadmaps aim to provide direction, enable consistent development in relation to a product vision and support communication with relevant stakeholders. There are many different formats for product roadmaps, but they are often based on the assumption that the future is highly predictable. However, especially software-intensive businesses are faced with increasing market dynamics, rapidly evolving technologies and changing user expectations. Consequently, many organizations are wondering what roadmap format is appropriate for them and what components it should have to deal with an unpredictable future. Objective: This paper aims to identify suitable formats for the development and handling of product roadmaps in dynamic and uncertain markets. Method: We performed a grey literature review according to Garousi. Results: First, various components of the roadmap were identified, especially goals, themes, outcomes and outputs. Second, various product roadmap formats (e.g. theme-based roadmaps) were discovered. The roadmap components were then assigned to the various product roadmap formats. This overview aims at providing decision support for companies to select a suitable product roadmap format and adapt it to their own needs.
