Agile Modeling is a practice-based
methodology for effective modeling and documentation of software-based
systems. Simply put, Agile Modeling is a collection of values,
principles, and practices for modeling software that can be applied on
a software development project in an effective and light-weight
manner. Agile Modeling is a supplement to other Agile Methodologies
such as:
The principles and values of Agile Modeling practises help to mitigate
the criticisms of Agile Software Development. The principle Maximize
Stakeholder Value inspires the developer to collaborate with the
customer in providing an adequate level of documentation.
The principle Model With Others leads to a design which is the best
fit for the customer's needs.
Limitations
There is significant dependence on face-to-face communication and
customer collaboration. Agile Modeling is difficult to apply where
there are large teams, team members are not co-located, and people
skills are lacking. However, Agile Modeling can be scaled with agile
architecture techniques. |
