Abstract

Knowledge management (KM) approaches for agilesoftware processes need to be lightweight, and must beable to react quickly to new information needs arising fordevelopers. In this paper, we describe how we extendedthe existing KM tool PRIME by collaborative filteringtechniques, in order to pro-actively provide users withtask-specific recommendations of potentially relevantinformation items. The resulting hybrid system thusallows for both the formal specification of "when to offerwhat information to whom", and heuristic-basedinformation recommendation functionality. As the latterrequires no knowledge engineering effort duringoperation, we argue that the resulting system supports alightweight KM approach that is viable for agile teams.
