the service level is a critical factor that affects pharmaceutical enterprises because its focuses on taking care of people's lives. An important factor is fulfilling orders on time to customers (doctors and patients), which requires the availability of products and the highest service level in the health system. the proposal of this study is based on developing a model that integrates supply chain processes at operational level to improve the service level. the model is carried out withthe integration of Lean and agile methodologies that seek to streamline and make the supply chain processes more flexible to fulfill orders. this study was simulated using Arena software, who helps to quantify the operational processes and improvement in the supply chain performance. Lean agile model achieves the service level required for the industry, as well as improves the performance of the supply chain in the company.

software start-ups develop innovative software products working with disruptive technologies in time pressure and market-driven environment. Recently, User eXperience (UX) has become a hot topic that interests software teams of start-ups. However, software and UX professionals have struggled to match UX practices into the development activities, partially because of the lack of resources in the start-ups. this paper investigates how software start-ups handle UX activities during software development and how relevant UX is to these companies' professionals. To achieve our aim, we surveyed 88 professionals who take part in software teams in star-ups, analyzing the responses using descriptive and statistical methods. Our results reveal that regardless of having or not a UX position in the start-up, UX practices are spread in different software development phases and not fitting into them. Results also show although professionals consider UX relevant and recognize important skills to perform UX activities, some obstacles hinder the effective use of UX in software start-ups. From the survey results, we identified a set of challenges to be overcome in consolidating the UX work in software start-ups. By diagnosing the UX state-of-practice in start-up scenarios and identifying such challenges, our work contributes to provides relevant insights to further academic and practical studies in this field.

extreme events with high impact and low probability pose a serious threat to the safe operation of power and transportation networks. To effectively enhance the resilience of power-transportation coupled networks, this paper proposes a scheduling optimization strategy for multi-type mobile emergency resources based on a hybrid data-model driven approach. Firstly, considering the influence of power line outages, traffic road faults and dynamic changes of traffic flow distribution on the strategies of mobile energy storage system (MESS), line repair crew (LRC) and road repair crew (RRC), a stochastic optimization scheduling model of multi-type mobile emergency resources to minimize the total loss cost of the power-transportation coupled networks is constructed. Secondly, this paper proposes a hybrid data-model driven approach to solve the complex nonlinear stochastic optimization model. In the data-driven part, a novel graph diffusion attention network multi-agent reinforcement learning algorithm is proposed to solve the mobile emergency resources routing strategy. In the model-driven part, this paper converts the power system model and the multi-type mobile emergency resources scheduling model into a mixed integer second-order cone programming model to solve the mobile emergency resources optimal scheduling strategy. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is validated in the modified IEEE 33-bus power network and 12-bus traffic network.

the purpose of this paper is to suggest additional aspects of social psychology that could help when making sense of autonomous agile teams. To make use of well-tested theories in social psychology and instead see how they replicated and differ in the autonomous agile team context would avoid reinventing the wheel. this was done, as an initial step, through looking at some very common agile practices and relate them to existing findings in social-psychological research. the two theories found that I argue could be more applied to the softwareengineering context are social identity theory and group socialization theory. the results show that literature provides social-psychological reasons for the popularity of some agile practices, but that scientific studies are needed to gather empirical evidence on these under-researched topics. Understanding deeper psychological theories could provide a better understanding of the psychological processes when building autonomous agile team, which could then lead to better predictability and intervention in relation to human factors.

Crowd Sourced software Development (CSSD) is becoming popular in software development industries due to reduced cost and efficiency. Many companies are moving towards crowdsourcing, and have already adopted agilesoftware Development (ASD). However, CSSD differs from ASD in many ways due to its distributed nature. Although there is little research on the integration of these two approaches, whereas at the same time the combination of the two is advocated by some. It is deemed necessary to identify and resolve the issues emerged while integrating CSSD and ASD. this study hence intends to explore the issues emerged as a result of integrating agile and CSSD and propose a Crowd agile model that will help in effective software development.

For established domains within highly regulated environments, a systematic approach is needed to scale agile methods and assure compliance with regulatory requirements. the presented approach works adequately in small agile teams - independently of the underlying method such as Scrum, Kanban, etc. - and is scalable to more and bigger teams or even entire subsidiaries. It is based on a compliance and a quality risk dimension respectively. Both dimensions are needed to fit regulatory requirements in our finance example with more than 100 developers in one subsidiary.

Mobile app development has been considered as one of the fastest growing segments of the software industry both worldwide and in Saudi Arabia. Due to their pervasiveness, mobile applications call for consideration of complex and rapidly changing requirements given the diversity of their environments. therefore, agile is considered the most suitable methodology for developing mobile apps. However, little research has investigated agile adoption in mobile app development in the real context. therefore, the purpose of this PhD is to investigate the factors that have a significant impact on agile adoption in mobile app development by small and medium-size software organisations in Saudi Arabia. the expected key contribution of this research will be a deep insight into agile adoption in mobile app development, and the design and development of tools and techniques that may support agile adoption within Saudi context.

In this document, we describe the experience of teaching agile Methods for developing projects related to the Linux Kernel, during the XP Lab course. In 2018, the first project related to this context emerged. this project had the objective of making adjustments to the driver for Linux IIO subsystem. the second project was developed in 2019 and aimed to refactor the Ethernet driver used in the kernel of a Brazilian Single Board Computer. Based on 19 years of experience offering the XP Lab course, we consider the development of these projects to be a challenging teaching activity, which deserves to be presented and discussed with students, educators, and professionals. Our aim is to show that it is possible to adapt agile Values to different software development settings.

It software development projects, working in teams is essential. therefore, softwareengineering courses often require the students to be working in teams to learn about team work behaviors and practices. the instructors of softwareengineering courses are presented with several challenges when teaching courses that require teamwork. For example, how to form high-performing student teams, and how to assess their work. the aim of this study is to evaluate whether there are differences in performance whether the students form the teams themselves, or if the teams are formed by the instructor. We evaluated a course involving agilesoftware development by 200 students working in 39 teams. A total of 76% of the students chose to form their own teams, the remaining 24% were placed in teams by the instructors. Our findings indicate that teams formed by the students perform slightly better than the teams formed by the instructors.
