Abstract

Agile Methods have a distinct culture that at a first glance seems to conflict with User-Centered Design. However, the use of agile methods can result in improved usability of software systems. This tutorial aims to present and discuss the best practices regarding the integration of User-Centered Design and Agile Methods. We believe that the lessons learned from this tutorial can be really useful and applicable in both industry and academic contexts.
