DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Business environments continue to change at a dramat
 ically increasing pace. In software engineering\, agile development approa
 ches such as Extreme Programming\, Lean Software Development or SCRUM\, vi
 ew change from a perspective that mirrors this turbulent business and tech
 nology environment. These agile development approaches represent a major d
 eparture from traditional\, plan-driven approaches to software engineering
 . "The plan" is replaced by frequent "planning" which is left to self orga
 nising teams. The effects of such changes to planning practice include pro
 blems of reduced control or difficulties with estimates. Agile development
  continues to have a huge impact on how software is developed worldwide. T
 he objective of Denniz's talk is to provide an overview of Agile Developme
 nt Methodologies\, and discuss their strengths and limitations.\n\n\nAbout
  the author:\n\nDenniz is a PhD candidate from ETH Zurich and a former vis
 iting student of the EDC. He completed his diploma in engineering from the
  Institute of Product Development at the Technical University of Munich. H
 is research focusses on Agile Development Methodologies in Software Engine
 ering.
