...Hossain et al. (2009) conducted a systematic literature review to focus on the practices used in the GSD projects using Scrum methods, the challenges that restrict the use of Scrum methodology and the solution to prevent them. The findings help researchers and practitioners to understand the challenges involved in using Scrum for GSD projects and the strategies available to deal with them. Hasnain (2010) conducted a systematic literature review to identify the agile practices as well as the human and technical factors pointed out in agile studies, published within 2003–2007. The review revealed that agile RE practices had only been discussed in the literature from the overall perspective of agile methods and not in the context of any particular methods such as Scrum, test-driven development, etc. Hasnain’s findings suggest that more empirical results are required on agile methods, in particular XP (Extreme Programming) (Beck, 1999) and Scrum (Schwaber & Beedle, 2001), in order to discuss the details from the practitioner’s point of view. Silva da Silva et al. (2011) conducted a systematic literature review on the topic of the integration of agile methods and usercentred design approaches. The review focused on usability issues in agile methods with respect to design. The findings show that usability issues in agile methods can be addressed by incorporating a user centred design specialist (UCDS) role in agile teams. The authors also defined practices to resolve usability issues in agile methods such as Little Design Up Front, Big Design Up Front, low fidelity prototypes, user testing, interaction models, and close collaboration. Barlow et al. (2011) examined the effect of the usage of agile development practices in large organisations....

Barlow et al. (2011) examined the effect of the usage of agile development practices in large organisations. The literature review contributed towards the formulation of a framework that provides guidelines to large organisations adopting agile methods. The findings of this review assist the practitioners to adopt software development methods in their organisations. Jalali and Wohlin (2011) conducted a systematic literature review on studies comprising the combination of agile methods with global software engineering from 1999 to 2009....

...For example, if we interpret that Principle 8, emphasizing face-to-face conversation, expresses a preference for co-located projects, does it exclude geographically distributed projects by definition from agility [39]? Despite these interpretation problems, it seems obvious that some subset of the Agile Manifesto could provide a starting point to characterize the agile approach....
