Boehm, B. Get Ready for Agile Methods, with Care. IEEE Computer, Jan 2002, pp. 64-69.
A new generation of developers cites the crushing weight of corporate bureaucracy, the rapid pace of information technology change, and the dehumanizing effects of detailed plan-driven development as cause for revolution.
