(2019) Bastos, Thiago Alves; Sampaio, Suzana Cândido de Barros; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0066131495297081; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9312633017399857
The use of Agile Methodologies among the Software Development Projects have beingin creasing in recent years. These methodologies have a set of values and principles which are people-centered, increasing the importance of the people factors for the success of projects using Agile methodologies. However, these factors are not fully understood by practitioners who work within Agile teams. This reality created a gap between what the companies are expecting from their Software Engineers and whatthey really know, in terms of Soft Skills, especially in their first-time job. Therefore, basedon a Literature Review and on the opinion of the Software Engineers working withinAgile Teams in the Digital Port of Recife, this work developed the MVP of an instrument capable of making a self evaluation of the 8 most important Soft Skills for a Software Engineer working in an Agile environment. Raising awareness about the relevance ofthe Soft Skills for the career of a Software Engineer, highlighting what are the mostrelevant Soft Skills for them and also reducing the existent gap in the IT job market.Moreover, during this study it was created a Soft Skill Catalog, containing the synonyms and the definitions of these Soft Skills found in the Literature. Finally, it was possible to realize the relevance of the Soft Skills for the Software Engineers where Leader ship and Negotiation were the two less important and Communication was the most important and the developed instrument came out as an extremely important instrument, specially for the Software Engineers in the beginning of the career. More over, it was also possible to realize that there aren’t enough activities inside the companies to improve the Soft Skills of their Software Engineers and the existent activities are not aligned with their expectations.

(2021-12-09) Silva, Lizandra Lígia Soares Bezerra; Sampaio, Suzana Cândido de Barros; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0066131495297081; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6600757641977555
Over the years, it is remarkable that women have been increasingly conquering their space in society, acquiring rights and acting in the labor market. However, gender inequality and the absence of women in certain roles is still a problem that persists, especially when it comes to women working in the field of technology. In this context, the objective of this work is to analyze the reason for the low number of women working in the area of software development, and if the identified barriers can be overcome based on the perception of success. Based on a literature review, an online questionnaire was developed, which was applied to women from the Porto Digital ecosystem in Recife, obtaining a total of 83 responses. To support the analysis of the results, in addition to the literature review, the PSPP tool was used to perform statistical calculations. It was possible to identify which personal and organizational barriers were found, such as self-demanding, leadership problems and harassment. A positive work environment was indicated as an aspect of success in projects, and could also be a solution to overcome problems.

(2021-02-24) Menezes, Renato Vieira de; Sampaio, Suzana Cândido de Barros; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0066131495297081; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5357825214092807
The recent daytoday reality of software engineers is determined by the practice of agile methods, motivating frequent questions in the community about how to adopt a more flexible and dynamic Requirements Engineering (RE), distinct from the traditional model. Agile methods do not have rules established for a single definition of how Requirements Engineering activities should be carried out. Exploring the advances of agile RE in diverse and challenging environments makes it suitable. Therefore, the objective of this Course Conclusion Paper (CCP) is to identify and understand the current scenario of the variety of use of practices / techniques that compose such activities, the important challenges and lessons learned. An extension of a systematic literature review study was conducted to carry out this analysis and the evidence is synthesized from sources published between 2017 and 2020. In addition to verifying, describing and directing the research regarding Agile Requirements Engineering, the work delivers a compiled of practices, observing the different contexts of projects and organizations.
Engenharia de software e métodos ágeis como forma de Inclusão
(2019) Silva, Anderson Mateus da; Sampaio, Suzana Cândido de Barros; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0066131495297081; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5385133978429474
Agile Methodologies have brought newi nsightint o how to develop software by focusing on individuals and relationships, on people and not on the software developed. Agile Methods also value the list of teams that have diversity, but only professional diver-sity is considered, where teams with professionals with different skills and knowledge facilitate self-sufficiency and consequently self-performance. However, the concept of diversity goes beyond this perspective, it is necessary to think about social diversity,think about inclusion and more than just include, integrate people into the team, inte-grate them into the organization. The human aspects of software engineering, studiedover 40 years ago, relate how individuals can develop their behavioral skills with in the context of software building environments. Such aspects can be enhanced through ag-ile practices, however, such practices do not actually have the perspective of inclusion,especially when talking about people with disabilities, so it is up to the team to create their own adaptations when this need exists.In this context,the objective of this paper isto identify the main techniques present in the literature, confront them with the reality of specialists who work ormanage agilete ams,being those with disabilities or people who worked coordinating teams with people with disabilities, and understand the challengesthey face during the developed projects. Based on a literature review and the opinionof agile practitioners through interviews, a series of techniques and strategies havebeen raised to help promote inclusion in agile teams. These include the Daily Meeting,Pair Programming, Planning Meeting, Review Meeting, Retrospective, Effort Estimat-ing, Workshop, and Code Challenges. Despite the use of these techniques, reliance onexternal factors such as specific tools or knowledge of sign language and inattention to make the environment conducive for professionals to feel confident and empoweredare the main challenges faced by agile teams with people with disabilities. Finally, acatalog is also proposed to support inclusion initiatives in agile teams, containing themain techniques mentioned in the literature and by agile professionals.

(2021-12-09) Ferreira, Ariany da Silva; Sampaio, Suzana Cândido de Barros; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0066131495297081; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4697861062895175
In recent decades, even with several government attempts to reduce violence against women, the statistics continue to grow. What is considered a serious violation of human rights is still a reality for many women around the world. In geographically isolated or inaccessible regions, women in addition to becoming more vulnerable to violence, become invisible in the face of statistics and public policies to combat violence against women. Using exploratory research to deepening what has been done to reduce violence against women, understand the concept of social innovation, mobile development and the creation of a minimum viable product, the Lamparina application aims to help rural women in the Pajeú hinterland in a situation of violence.

The values and principles of agile methodology ain to aggregate value to the business in a quick manner, being this agility, one of the critics factors for the successof this approaches. This success is crucial to attend the constant rising demand forsoftware, generated by the necessity of digital transformation. Currently, another concern, also resulting of this necessity, has gained more visibility, the cyber secu-rity. A lot of companies that have migrated for the digital world did not have thedue caution with the present threats in this scenery. As consequence, many security problems have being espoused in this past few years, this problems, tent to resultin social and financial losses. Software being one of the computational assets with the biggest expulser to this threats, the search for cyber security tend to become ademand. In this scenery, emerge the necessity to include security practices to the everyday live of the agile team. With the intent to contribute to the resolution ofthis task, this paper has as his goal to: establish cyber security policies, aggregating practices destined to the inclusion of security attributes to software projects, being developed for agile teams. To achieve this, it was necessary to perform a exploratory research through a bibliographic survey, to obtain an initial understanding of the problem and of the main approaches used to solve it. From the bibliography that itwas found it was considered only the research that present practices that included cyber security activities on software projects. Based on predefined criteria, an initialfiltering of the surveyed practices was conducted. The resulting subset was evaluatedby an agile development team with security expertise. The result of this evaluation evidenced the 14 (fourteen) most relevant practices and the stages of the development process to which they belonged. From the selected practices, five (5) policieswere structured and organized, then evaluated by experts, through interviews, tojudge their benefits for safety and applicability in agile teams. From the result of this assessment, it was concluded that 3 (three) of the policies were sufficiently ap-plicable to agile teams and contribute to project safety. Already 2 (two) of them,despite the security benefits, still need adjustments to make the incorporation viablein the agile world.
Relações entre as personalidades e o clima de trabalho de equipes ágeis de desenvolvimento de software
(2021-12-09) Teixeira, Marcus Vinícius Ferreira; Sampaio, Suzana Cândido de Barros; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0066131495297081; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8422770381149615
The modernization of software development processes on the last decades has been showing preference for the adoption of agile development metodologies. Those metodologies also consider important the quality of the interactions between the team members, and use concepts such as team climate and team success. There are already tools that can be used to analyse individual characteristics of developers and how they behave, but the literature still lacks papers that analyse different personality compositions and how those may affect the perception of team success on agile software development teams.With that in mind, it is possible to try to predict how team members relations will work and use this knowledge to build agile software development teams, aiming at maximizing the quality of the members’ interactions. This paper aims at analysing the relations between MBTI (Myers Briggs Type Indicator) personalities and its effects on the well being of the team members, using the concept of Team Success. To do so, an exploratory literature research was conducted to find out which would be the best metrics and analyses that should be used. After that, a real world dataset was created through surveys. This data was then used to analyse the relations between the members personalities, team compositions and Team Success. The results shows significant correlations between personality diversity and Team Success, and also between specific personality traits and the Team Success.
Um sistema de apoio à decisão para priorização e estruturação de histórias de usuários: um suporte para equipe ágeis
(2018-08) Calado, Alex Rogério da Silva; Garrozi, Cícero; Sampaio, Suzana Cândido de Barros; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0066131495297081; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0488054917286587; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1189807442146524
Despite the advances obtained in the Software Engineering with agile methods the market still shows successful rates in unsatisfactory projects. Throughout a software project, changing requirement and priority are unavoidable and recurrent. This is an important factor to the software development businesses mainly small ones with limited resources. The usage of agile techniques such as Scrum and User Stories (US) benefits the businesses and make them more competitive. One of the problems faced with agile requirements is to obtain a prioritization of secure US according to the business value given by the client in agreement with technical specifications. This paper proposes to present an essay that serves as basis to the construction of a decision support tool to the US prioritization decisions. For such was considered a software project as a temporary organization and suggested metrics that best suits the needs of small teams avoiding reworks, the increasing in the deadlines and costs, without disregarding the client satisfaction in interactive deliveries. Based on the Volere requirements template and in the literature review it was proposed the adoption of five metrics to be considered in the prioritization of the User Stories: the client satisfaction in receiving the US and the client dissatisfaction in not receiving it; replacing the traditional value of business; the so usual complexity; the necessity of team learning and; software risks. Using online forms were captured data about these metrics and the prioritization given to each US in software projects that uses the agile Scrum method. Decision Tree was the proposed suggestion for predicting the US prioritization for having a practical visualization and a more intuitive interpretation, facilitating the acceptance as a decision method support for professionals involved in the area. In spite of the low databases volume the results obtained through the Weka tool, like the precision and the ROC curve, were satisfactory without prediction tendencies and with good indexes of correctness, after the algorithms and databases adjustments avoiding overfitting and underfitting.
