An Exploration of Agile Methods in the Automotive Industry: Benefits, Challenges and Opportunities
<|reference_start|>An Exploration of Agile Methods in the Automotive Industry: Benefits, Challenges and Opportunities: Agile methodologies have gained significant traction in the software development industry, promising increased flexibility and responsiveness to changing requirements. However, their applicability to safety-critical systems, particularly in the automotive sector, remains a topic of debate. This paper examines the benefits and challenges of implementing agile methods in the automotive industry through a comprehensive review of relevant literature and case studies. Our findings highlight the potential advantages of agile approaches, such as improved collaboration and faster time-to-market, as well as the inherent challenges, including safety compliance and cultural resistance. By synthesizing existing research and practical insights, this paper aims to provide an understanding of the role of agile methods in shaping the future of automotive software development.<|reference_end|>
