Coming Up Agile
I have always been interested in theorys that contribute to organizational or process improvement and in my own judgement make a lot of sense, like “Theory of Constraints”, “Systems Thinking”, and “Lean Thinking”. I have been looking at Theory of Constraints recently for a non-software related project I am working on, but I was reminded of the agile theme when reviewing search engine results.
Whenever you try and apply these to software development, the result always seems to look Agile.
Examples:
- Places to Intervene In A System
- Lean Programming
- Theory of Constraints (Agile Management For Software Engineering, David J. Anderson)
- An Essential Distinction of Agile Software Development Processes
