Author(s): Carsten Jacobi, Bernhard Rumpe Year: 2001 Publisher: Addison-Wesley Editor: G. Succi, M. Marchesi Abstract:XP is a light-weight methodology suited particularly for small-sized teams
that
develop software which has only vague or rapidly changing requirements.
The
discipline of systems engineering knows it as approach of incremental
system
change or also of "muddling through". In this paper, we
introduce three well
known methods of reorganizing companies, namely,
the holistic approach, the
incremental approach, and the hierarchical
approach. We show similarities
between software engineering methods and
company reorganization processes. In
particular, we discuss the
extreme programming (XP) approach how the elements
of the hierarchical
approach can improve XP, providing hints on how to scale
up XP
to larger projects.
