Abstract

Extreme programming (XP) is arguably improving the productivity of small, co-located software development teams. In this paper, we described an approach that tries to overcome the XP constraint of co-location by introducing a process-support environment (called MILOS for Agile Software Engineering - MILOS ASE) that helps software development teams to maintain XP practices in a distributed setting. MILOS ASE supports project coordination using the planning game, user stories, information routing, team communication, and pair programming.
