A New Vision Over Agile Project Management in the Internet of Things Era

Abstract

Living in the modern society, where the Internet of Things (IoT) network is constantly evolving and Things belonging to the network are expanding new functions in a fast pace, there is inevitably a need of having a new vision over the software project management that should keep up the pace with these changes. The impact of the new smart devices is major and can be seen at all levels of software project management. By creating a project management solution across the IoT network, we aim to improve the efficiency and to optimize parameters such as: teamwork, analysis of a large amount of data, project managers and stakeholders input, resource planning, project development and feedback speed. A great contribution in achieving optimization and efficiency improvement for the software project management solution have all the smart devices using high computing power, high data transmission speed and efficient data processing. Therefore, this paper proposes an Agile project management solution that adapts to the IoT network, embedding Things with their features correspondingly into the project management process. Putting the project management process across the IoT network, the Agile project management solution slightly changes the steps of software project management as to increase different project parameters as like: team collaboration, team efficiency, project technique level, project technological level, project automation level.
