Abstract

This chapter introduces the definition of an agile process for the INGENIAS methodology. It is based on a well-known development process: Scrum. The process adopts the iterative and fast plan presented originally by the methodology and uses some of the activities and most of the work products of the INGENIAS proposal with the Unified Development Process (UDP) (introduced in a previous chapter). The new approach is also based on the INGENIAS metamodel, but it is more focused on code development than on system specification. It takes advantage of the INGENIAS Agent Framework (IAF), which is part of the INGENIAS Development Kit (IDK). As this approach uses the same metamodels than the UDP based, there are not great differences in the models of the case study, but, instead, the organization of the work products and the time spent to get the final results is quite different.
