Collaborative knowledge acquisition for agile project management

Abstract

Recently, potential of agile management has been successfully proven in several different application domains, particularly in software development. In this paper, we propose process model for application of the agile methodologies to project management in general. In order to address the aspect of interaction, we discuss few collaborative computing mechanisms that may be adopted in intelligent information systems enabling knowledge acquisition for agile project management and further investigate qualitative benefits of the approach. The mechanisms are illustrated by means of our Collaborative Semantic Web Portal Prototype.
