Description
After more than 15 years since the Agile Manifesto and extensive research on agile information system development (AISD), a comprehensive body of knowledge is available and is constantly growing. AISD is considered an effective way for managing ISD projects in environments characterized by rapidly changing requirements. This study aims to shed light on the existing knowledge on AISD by applying a structured literature review and computer aided analysis consisting of distinct text mining techniques. We plan to analyze a sample of more than 10,000 articles and provide preliminary results of a subset of 327 articles of the Senior Scholars’ Basket and selected conferences. Based on our approach, we are able to (1) evaluate key articles, authors, and journals, (2) analyze the development of AISD research in the last two decades and, most importantly, (3) identify research foci of the past as well as gaps in our knowledge on AISD.
