Abstract

Large software development projects are not agile by nature. Large projects are not easy to implement, they are even harder to implement using agile methodologies. Based on over seven years of experience building software systems using agile methodologies we found that large software projects require more practices than the usual used in small projects. In this paper, we will introduce a set of new and modified development practices, which will help developing a large agile project.
