Hrvoje Sertic, Krešimir Maržić, Zoran Kalafatić · 2007
Development of the telecommunications software systems is a highly demanding task. Beside requirements for high reliability, availability and very complex features, customers today demand new releases to be delivered in a very short time frames. Usual development projects are faced with significant problems and obstacles that in most cases result with long development cycles, high cost and poor quality of implemented solutions. The transition from traditional software development towards agile projects with frequent releases is not trivial and demand significant changes in all aspects of project organization. This work analyzes major obstacles in telecommunication software development and proposes a method for the use of common project retrospectives to improve telecommunications software development. Proposed method is applied and evaluated on the actual project to demonstrate all benefits that project retrospectives can bring to the telecommunications software development.
