AMCIS 2019 CFP - Mini-Track: Innovative Methods and Continuous
Development
https://amcis2019.aisconferences.org/submissions/track-descriptions/#toggle-id-29
Track: Systems Analysis and Design
Cancun, Mexico August 15-17, 2019
In order to develop and deliver high-quality products to their
customers,
software organizations are adopting innovative methods (Kanban,
Lean) and
Continuous Development processes such as continuous delivery,
continuous
deployment, and microservices to support an agile software
development
lifecycle. For example, the DevOps (Development + Operations)
phenomenon
emerged to address the disconnection between development and
operations
functions that can occur in large organizations particularly when
they
adopt agile software development lifecycles.
The choice of these innovative development methods and approaches
have a
high impact on the planning, development, operations, and delivery
of
systems. They can also influence the structure or culture of
organizations
as common organizational processes and development activities have
to be
adapted to ensure Continuous Development. Therefore, a better
understanding
of the factors that influence the effective implementation of
these
methods, processes and practices is needed. Such understanding can
help
organizations to achieve improvement in development outcomes such
as
productivity, quality, service time, and customer satisfaction. We
need
empirical evidence of achieving (or not) the intended goals and
outcomes on
all of the topics that fall under the umbrella of “Continuous
Development”.
These and other related topics will be explored in this
mini-track.
Call for Papers:
We are seeking high-quality research papers for this track that
investigate
various aspects of contemporary development methods (Lean, Kanban)
and
Continuous development. Possible topics include, but are not
limited to:
• Continuous improvement with Lean and Kanban
• Continuous Development processes (continuous delivery,
continuous release and deployment, continuous measurement and
improvement)
• Automation (build and test automation, deployment automation,
monitoring automation, infrastructure automation, metrics
automation)
• Effective practices in Continuous Development
• Challenges implementing Continuous Development processes and
activities
• Cultural enablers of DevOps (shared goals and understanding,
continuous experimentation and learning, shared values, respect
and trust,
and collective ownership)
• Organisational issues for Continuous development
• DevOps in large enterprises
• Industrial experience with Continuous development
• Teaching Continuous Development
