The aim of the study is to introduce a software reuse technique into a generalized agile process for a reuse of a product backlog item. The software engineering community has made some efforts to integrate software reuse and agile methods. Most studies have emphasized the use of agile practices in software product line engineering, whereas reuse in agile methods has received little focus. Nevertheless, the activities and artifacts that provided by an agile method exhibit characteristics that promote reuse. In this paper, we identify catalytic activities and characteristics that promote reuse in a generalized agile process, and we suggest a reuse technique for a product backlog item. Based on our results, we integrate a backlog factoring technique into a generalized agile process for reuse. In addition, we apply the proposed technique and demonstrate a prototype of backlog item reuse in agile methods for a restaurant chain application.

There have been many efforts to find a new way to combine software reuse and agile software development methods. This paper studies the integration of software reuse techniques in agile methods, such as Scrum. Agile methods have the advantage of accepting frequent requirement changes, while software reuse reduces development time. Despite the rapid acceptance of the Scrum method in industry, not much emphasis has been placed on active reuse in the Scrum method, and most studies have focused on introducing agile practices into software product line engineering. However, the iterative development and backlog refinement activities of the Scrum method present the advantage of facilitating software reuse. In this paper, we identify sprint characteristics and components for reuse and suggest extended backlog refinement steps. Based on the results of this research, we integrate a backlog factoring technique into backlog refinement to support reuse in agile methods. In addition, we apply the proposed technique and demonstrate a prototype of product backlog reuse in backlog refinement for an Internet shopping mall application.

There has been a growing amount of research on combining Agile methods and software reuse. Most of it introduces Agile into software product line rather than software reuse into Scrum method. Meanwhile, some assets such as backlogs and incremental artifacts in Scrum development are reusable. In this paper, we identify a backlog binder that aggregates reusable Scrum assets and proposes a backlog binder reuse technique. In addition, we can apply the proposed technique and show prototyping of backlog binder reuse in job matching applications.

The main purpose of the article is to study the features of innovation and project management. The rapid growth of scientific and technological progress in our time is leading to such profound changes that a passive, slow response to the development of science and technology leads to a growing backlog. That is why the main direction of efficient production should be a constant striving to improve product quality, timely replacement of the assortment, minimization of inventories, and ensuring the flexibility and mobility of technological processes. Based on the results of the study, the main features of innovation and project management were characterized.
