Abstract :
Most of the agile methods mainly concentrate on the development phase. None of them however is explicitly dedicated to the evolution and maintenance domain. In this paper, we outline an agile evolution and maintenance process model and evaluate it within two Canadian software organizations. We do this by comparing current agile development process models to the industrial evolution and maintenance practice in order to find issues relevant for the evolution and maintenance domain. Our results show that some changes need be made in the current agile methods.
