Coordination of development and operations activities in agile software development (2022)
Thesis
Macarthy, R. Coordination of development and operations activities in agile software development. (Thesis). University of Salford

DevOps is described as a software engineering culture and philosophy that utilises cross-functional teams, to build test and release software faster and more reliably through automation. As an emerging concept, its definitions and best practices are... Read More about Coordination of development and operations activities in agile software development.

A novel weight-assignment load balancing algorithm for cloud applications (2022)
Journal Article
Adewojo, A., & Bass, J. (in press). A novel weight-assignment load balancing algorithm for cloud applications. CLOSER (Setúbal), 86-96. https://doi.org/10.5220/0011091600003200

Load balancing dynamically optimizes cloud resources and performance, and enhances the performance of
applications deployed on cloud. We have chosen to investigate the class of cloud deployed web-based threetier business applications. There is a pro... Read More about A novel weight-assignment load balancing algorithm for cloud applications.

Multi-cloud load distribution for three-tier applications (2022)
Journal Article

Web-based business applications commonly experience user request spikes called flash crowds. Flash crowds
in web applications might result in resource failure and/or performance degradation. To alleviate these challenges, this class of applications... Read More about Multi-cloud load distribution for three-tier applications.

An empirical investigation of agile information systems development for cybersecurity (2022)
Journal Article
Ardo, A., Bass, J., & Gaber, T. (2022). An empirical investigation of agile information systems development for cybersecurity. Lecture notes in business information processing (Internet), 567-581. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-95947-0_40

Cybersecurity has been identified as a major challenge confronting the digital world,
neglecting cybersecurity techniques during software design and development increases the risk
of malicious attacks. Thus, there is a need to make security an inte... Read More about An empirical investigation of agile information systems development for cybersecurity.

Towards secure agile software development process: a practice-based model (2022)
