Adaptive Software Development is a move towards adaptive practices, leaving the deterministic practices in the context of complex systems and complex environments. Adaptive Software Development focuses on collaboration and learning as a technique to build complex systems. It is evolved from the best practices of Rapid Application Development (RAD) and Evolutionary Life Cycles.

Audience

Adaptive Software Development is written for project teams that have been struggling with high-speed, high-change projects and are looking for ways to improve performance and to moderate burnout, especially as the projects they undertake get larger and the teams become more distributed.

Prerequisites

Before you start proceeding with this tutorial, we are assuming that you are already aware about the basics of Software Development Life Cycle. If you are not well aware of these concepts, then we will suggest you to go through our short tutorials on SDLC.
