Agile Software-Entwicklungsmethoden

Project Goals of University of Hamburg

Seit einigen Jahren bereichern agile Methoden die Welt der Software-Entwicklungsprozesse. Zu ihnen gehört auch der Extreme-Programming-Ansatz, den wir bereits seit 1999 in Projekten zusammen mit dem HiTEC-Partner it-wps GmbH einsetzen. Neben Extreme Programming existieren noch weitere agile Prozesse: z.B. Crystal, SCRUM und Feature-Driven Development. Mit agilen Entwicklungsprozessen wollen wir qualitativ hochwertige Software in kurzer Zeit zur Zufriedenheit der Kunden entwickeln. Um dieses Ziel zu erreichen, orientieren wir uns an folgenden Leitlinien:

Verändere den Prozess, wenn nötig, und passe ihn an sich verändernde Rahmenbedingungen an.
Das Wichtigste zuerst - realisiere "Business Value" so schnell wie möglich.
Halte den Entwicklungsprozess leichtgewichtig und flexibel. Vergiss beispielsweise alle unnötigen Dokumente.
Entwickle die Software in kleinen Schritten und kurzen Iterationszyklen. Liefere die Software möglichst früh und möglichst oft an den Kunden aus.

In der englischen Literatur sind dazu einige griffige Grundsätze für die Softwareentwicklung formuliert worden:

Individuals and Interactions over processes and tools
Working Software over comprehensive documentation
Customer Collaboration over contract negotiation
Responding to Change over following a plan

Mit dem Projektpartner it-wps setzen wir agile Prozesse, hauptsächlich Extreme Programming, in verschiedenen kommerziellen Projekten ein. Parallel dazu bearbeiten wir passende Forschungsthemen wie:

Agile Methoden für große Teams und große Projekte
Agile Methoden für eingebettete Systeme
Agile Methoden für die Framework-Entwicklung

Project JWAM - Java framework supporting the tools and materials approach

Initiated by a students' project JWAM has evolved into a full fledged professional application framework. JWAM supports the development of interactive Java applications following the tools and materials matepaher. JWAM ist developed and maintained jointly by members of the Software Engineering Group and developers of the APCON Workplace Solutions Inc. (APCON WPS).
JWAM is used in University projects in teaching and for master and phd theses. APCON WPS uses JWAM in industry projects for the development of interactive applications. This combination of academic and industrial work ensures that JWAM provides the latest technologies and concepts based on real-life requirements.
Several research questions are related to JWAM:

How can the reuse level be increased with frameworks and components?
How should we organize framework development projects?
How do we have to organize framework based application projects?
How can frameworks provide scalable and maintainable architectures for applications?

Project Pro PrüVer - Examination Administration

Introducing a distributed information system for the examination administration at Hamburg University.

Ralf Klischewski, Bernd Wolff (and students)

Initiated by the "Project university development", the introduction of a distributed information system for the examination administration at Hamburg University involves a number actors: the different departments, examination administration offices, university management, central computing center, software supplier - to name the most important players.
The research aim of the project is to analyze and to facilitate the interaction of software/IS development and organizational development throughout the whole process of introducing a new computerized system: goal/project definition, requirement analysis, market analysis and product evaluation/selection, risk analysis/security measures, contracting, customizing, implementation, establishing user support,...
This action research is carried out within the "Hamburg Informatics Technology Center" (HITEC) aiming at transferring innovative software technologies and expertise to user organizations within the region.

Project Goals of University of Hamburg

The goal is to develop organizational models for planning and controlling the process of framework application as well as the framework development process. Two major types of models have to be elaborated: a project model and a development model. An approach based on experience from other development projects, experiences from fundamental research projects and investigations on the framework developing organization, organizational models for the trial site as well as for the framework development site will be provided.
Another goal is to design and implement tools for the exploration, maintenance and application of object-oriented frameworks. The tool visualizes the collaboration and responsibilities of the varios framework components at runtime. The tool demonstrates the dynamically complex interaction amongst framework components by specific diagram techniques.

Expertise of University of Hamburg

For the proposed project, the University of Hamburg will contribute research expertise in software engineering and framework design as well as its practical experience in introducing object-oriented and framework technology to industrial partners. It is also a provider of tools for this project. The Software Engineering Group of the University of Hamburg has a staff 7 fulltime researchers. The group focusses its research on concepts, methods and tools for designing interactive application systems. Software design is
seen as a part of organizational system development. The group is concerned with processes of learning and communication amongst various groups of participants and embedding software products in organizations. It has developed an object-oriented and evolutionary software development method for interacticve systems and is currently extending the term interactive to technical embedded systems. It has experience in designing technical and domain specific frameworks in industrial settings.
