Agile Software Development

The AgileAlliance is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting the concept of agile software development and helping organizations adopt this concept. The concept is outlined by the Manifesto for Agile Software Development.  The AgileAlliance germinated in the fertilizer of the original AgileAlliance, a group of software professionals that had developed and were practicing lightweight approaches to software development. Responding  to requests for a more open, inclusive, and visible way for everyone to  participate, most of the founders of the AgileAlliance defined and established the non-profit AgileAlliance. This organization was designed to be lightweight, initially only consisting of a board of directors, one administrator, and a set of bylaws. Just like agile processes, all work and operations within the AgileAlliance is intended to emerge from subsets of members that self-organize into programs. http://www.agileAlliance.org

Scrum Methodology

The Scrum methodology of agile software development marks a dramatic departure from waterfall management. In fact, Scrum and other agile processes were inspired by its shortcomings. The Scrum methodology emphasizes communication and collaboration, functioning software, and the flexibility to adapt to emerging business realities — all attributes that suffer in the rigidly ordered waterfall paradigm. http://scrummethodology.com/
