component in the software industry and is recognized as an important area

movement has a major impact on how organizations work and how individuals

grow, and its development model serves as a foundation for business,
collaboration processes, software engineering practices, IT management. On
the other hand, the movement has introduced new challenges, especially in
relation to openness and the innovative nature of this development model.
