Abstract

Agile User-Centered Design is an emergent and extremely important theme, but what does it exactly mean? Agile User-Centered Design is the use of user-centered design (UCD) in Agile environments. We build on previous work to provide a systematic mapping of Agile UCD publications at the two major agile and human-computer interaction (HCI) conferences. The analysis presented in this paper allows us to answer primary research questions such as: what is agile UCD; what types of HCI techniques have been used to integrate agile and UCD; what types of studies on agile UCD have been published; what types of research methods have been used in Agile UCD studies; and what benefits do these publications offer? Furthermore, we explore topics such as: who are the major authors in this field; and is the field driven by academics, practitioners, or collaborations? This paper presents our analysis of these topics in order to better structure future work in the field of Agile UCD and to provide a better understanding of what this field actually entails.
