Scaling extreme programming in a market driven development context

In English This paper briefly summarizes a research project aiming at analyzing the scaling up of extreme programming (XP) in a market driven context for embedded software and the integration of XP towards management processes in this context. Both the scaling of XP and market driven software development issues are not addressed by the original XP methodology as it relies on developing software by simplifying the development situation as far as possible in order to do the simplest thing that could possibly work. The research project is composed of a number of steps aimed at gathering information from actual development organizations, analyzing, synthesizing, and incorporating the conclusions into the models created
