Abstract

In this paper, we summarize the research done by the first author on Agile Methods in Brazil in a historical setting. In the beginning, Alfredo Goldman started as an enthusiast of Agile Methods, without pretending to become an agile advocate. However, as he perceived the importance of this new form of software development and in the belief of promoting a different way of looking at software engineering, naturally his contributions and achievements took him in this regard. We present Goldman’s agile software development research topics, and their respective contributions. We had the hard task to summarize more than a decade of research in only one short text. We show the influence of his work within Agile Methods since 2001, not only on teaching, but also on the research field and on the Brazilian software development industry.

Supported by CNPq under the grant 306518/2016-3. This study was financed in part by the Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nııvel Superior - Brasil (CAPES) - Finance Code 001.
