Scrum Agile events, based on The 2020 Scrum Guide [1] Scrum is an agile team collaboration framework commonly used in software development and other industries. Scrum prescribes for teams to break work into goals to be completed within time-boxed iterations, called sprints. Each sprint is no longer than one month and commonly lasts two weeks.
Empirical software engineering (ESE) [1] is a subfield of software engineering (SE) research that uses empirical research methods to study and evaluate an SE phenomenon of interest.
Even if the user-centred design process implemented in a project guarantees a certain degree of user acceptance and yields a richer understanding of the context of use, the completed product's ability to adapt to changing conditions still plays a central role for a broad acceptance.

[30] In some fields, like metaphysics or ethics, the choice between empiricism and rationalism makes a difference not just for how a given claim is justified but for whether it is justified at all ...
The INVEST mnemonic for Agile software development projects was created by Bill Wake [1] as a reminder of the characteristics of a good quality Product Backlog Item (commonly written in user story format, but not required to be) or PBI for short.
