With that in mind, they offer a set of simple yet effective practices based on the values and supporting principles of the Agile Manifesto. Today, more and more organizations are practicing Agile but transitioning to Agile is not as straightforward as it might seem. The benefits afforded by the agile values, principles and practices are not fully obtained and adapters struggle to become more mature; i.e. increase their Agility. For, adapters to address this problem, agility assessments have been designed to be aware of the situation of their transition and make sure that they are heading in the right direction. However, these assessments still require significant amount of time and effort to apply. To overcome this problem, we have developed a web-based agility assessment tool which is a part of an integrated agility assessment approach. The approach consists of a structured and comprehensive agility assessment model (AgilityMod), an exemplar agility assessment process and a web based agility assessment tool (AssessAgility). This research focuses on the final component of the approach: AssessAgility tool and presents a multiple case study that was conducted to evaluate tool's capabilities in terms of providing guidance, automation and reducing the effort spent on the assessments.","PeriodicalId":151513,"journal":{"name":"2017 43rd Euromicro Conference on Software Engineering and Advanced Applications (SEAA)","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125758011","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, these systems have to autonomously manage their system goals and continuously evaluate their achievement at run-time. However, with the increasing complexity of system goals including, e.g., priorities, dependencies, and conflicts among goals, abinary or qualitative judgement of achievement of goals is not sufficient any more. Instead, it is necessary to quantify the degree to which the goals are fulfilled in order to balance the cost-benefit ratio at run-time. In this paper, we present a hierarchical and modular goal model that allows for capturing complex relations between subgoals, e.g., dependencies and conflicts. We provide an algorithm that efficiently evaluates gradual achievement of goalsat run-time. Due to the modular structure of our model and our evaluation, goals can easily be added, removed, and changed at run-time. With our approach, we a) ease the design of goal-aware autonomous systems by providing an explicit structure that emphasises relations between subgoals, b) provide an automatic quantification of the satisfaction of complex system goals that can be used to, e.g., evaluate autonomous decisions at runtime, andc) enable runtime management of changing system goals.","PeriodicalId":151513,"journal":{"name":"2017 43rd Euromicro Conference on Software Engineering and Advanced Applications (SEAA)","volume":"77 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122906397","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When software startups are concerned, requirements elicitation is particularly challenging due to the high uncertainty that a startup is confronted with. Few studies have investigated how software startups conduct requirements elicitation and what techniques are used in such a context. This study intends to address this knowledge gap. Three software startups from different part of the globe were studied. The findings reveal that the requirements elicitation process in startups is primordial and mainly informal, and it is an ongoing process alongside with product evolution. Software startups do employ established requirements elicitation techniques including interviews, prototyping and brainstorming. They also utilize other less common ones such as competitor analysis, collaborative team discussion and use of model users. This study highlights the market-driven nature of requirements that software startups have to deal with, and offers the first insights on the requirements elicitation techniques that could be relevant and applicable in the context of software startups.","PeriodicalId":151513,"journal":{"name":"2017 43rd Euromicro Conference on Software Engineering and Advanced Applications (SEAA)","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127869095","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, it is difficult to develop CPU-GPU embedded systems using component-based development (CBD), since existing CBD approaches have no support for GPU development. In this context, when targeting a particular CPU-GPU platform, the component developer is forced to construct hardware-specific components, which are problematic to (re-)use in different contexts. Moreover, hard-coding specific GPU-usage characteristics (e.g., the number of utilized GPU threads) inside the component is not possible without making detailed assumptions about the system in which the component is used, which conflicts with separation-of-concerns CBD principle.The paper presents a solution to allow component-based development of platform-agnostic CPU-GPU embedded systems through: i) high-level API, ii) adapters, and iii) code template. The API abstracts the specifics of the different platforms, while the adapters externalize hardware-specific activities outside components. We also raise the decision regarding the GPU-usage specifications, from the component to the system level. Furthermore, to minimize the development effort, we provide a code template that contains ready-made code fragments required for GPU development. As a case study, we examine the feasibility of our solution applied on a component-based vision system of an underwater robot.","PeriodicalId":151513,"journal":{"name":"2017 43rd Euromicro Conference on Software Engineering and Advanced Applications (SEAA)","volume":"107 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130478751","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
