This paper describes and contrasts findings from two related projects where groups of science pupils investigated local air pollution using a collection of mobile sensors and devic...
—Multi-project wafer (MPW) is commonly used for low-volume IC production. In this paper, we study whether it can be used for medium-volume production. Cost equations are develope...
As more and more software projects engage Agile Methods, there are emerging patterns of success and failure. With growing adoption of Agile Methods, project managers increasingly ...

In this exploratory case study, effort distribution visualizations of industrial software development projects are made in order to assess to what extent patterns can be found tha...
EvoSpaces is a Swiss-wide research project sponsored by the Hasler foundation. It involves three partners: University of Zurich, University of Lugano and the University of Applied...
This paper examines the non-linear nature of progress on software projects. It asserts that this uneven accomplishment stems from the continuous need to drive value quickly in res...
Abstract—Open source software teams routinely develop complex software products in frequent-release settings with rather lightweight processes and project documentation. In this ...
