Abstract

The main focus of this paper is to emphasize the advantages of the Agile strategy when applied to a typical Project Management task. As software development has an old tradition, a comparison of the strengths of the new approach will be presented in detail, aiming to prove that the popularity of Agile is not without reason. There are software tools that help IT architects keep their teams and projects on track, and a case study for the academic environment will be discussed. The Conclusions part will summarize the results and shed some light on the future.
