XP is the premier Agile software development conference combining research and practice. It is a unique forum where Agile researchers, practitioners, thought leaders, coaches, and trainers get together to present and discuss their most recent innovations, research results, experiences, concerns, challenges, and trends. XP conferences provide an informal environment to learn and trigger discussions, and welcome both people new to Agile and seasoned Agile practitioners. XP 2021 marked the 22nd edition of the “First Conference in Agile.” Our theme was “Agile Turns Twenty While the World Goes Online” as this year we marked both the 20th anniversary of the publication of the Agile Manifesto and the global move to remote working as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. After the challenges of the past year and during these times of great change we continue to provide a space for academics and industry practitioners to come together and share what they have learnt over the last year. We elicited a wide range of contributions addressing all Agile approaches, theoretical viewpoints of Agile, applications of Agile in a wide range of areas including DevOps, FinTech, AI/ML, and IoT, and empirical studies exploring how Agile approaches are used and the impact they have in different settings. The XP 2021 conference invited submissions on eight tracks: research papers, research workshops, experience reports, industry and practice sessions, empirical studies (on-site research), Agile gamification and facilitation, posters, and lightning talks. We ran a slightly reduced conference because of the pandemic and received 215 submissions, demonstrating that the XP community remains strong even in difficult times. For the research paper track, we invited submissions of unpublished high-quality research papers related to Agile and lean software development. Submissions addressing topics across the full spectrum of Agile software development, on issues of concern to practitioners, researchers, or both, were welcomed. The XP 2021 research paper track received 38 submissions. Each paper was reviewed by three members of the Program Committee. Based on the reviews, 11 full papers and 2 short papers were accepted for publication in these proceedings. The papers cover a wide range of topics, including Agile practices, assessment of agility and delivery performance, and large-scale Agile. The success of the XP 2021 conference should be attributed to the passionate and hard work of many people. We greatly appreciate the contributions of the authors, the Program Committee, and the volunteers. Finally, we would like to express our gratitude vi Preface to the XP Conference Steering Committee and the Agile Alliance for their ongoing support.

  • Mock Filipino, Hawai'i Creole, and Local Elitism
    Pragmatics 21:3.341-371 (2011) International Pragmatics Association DOI: 10.1075/prag.21.3.03hir IS DAT DOG YOU’RE EATING?: MOCK FILIPINO, HAWAI‘I CREOLE, AND LOCAL ELITISM Mie Hiramoto Abstract This paper explores both racial and socioeconomic classification through language use as a means of membership categorization among locals in Hawai‘i. Analysis of the data focuses on some of the most obvious representations of language ideology, namely, ethnic jokes and local vernacular. Ideological constructions concerning two types of Filipino populations, local Filipinos and immigrant Filipinos, the latter often derisively referred to as “Fresh off the Boat (FOB)” are performed differently in ethnic jokes by local Filipino comedians. Scholars report that the use of mock language often functions as a racialized categorization marker; however, observations on the use of Mock Filipino in this study suggest that the classification as local or immigrant goes beyond race, and that the differences between the two categories of Filipinos observed here are better represented in terms of social status. First generation Filipino immigrants established diaspora communities in Hawai‘i from the plantation time and they slowly merged with other groups in the area. As a result, the immigrants’ children integrated themselves into the local community; at this point, their children considered themselves to be members of this new homeland, newly established locals who no longer belonged to their ancestors’ country. Thus, the local population, though of the same race with the new immigrants, act as racists against people of their own race in the comedy performances. Keywords: Hawai‘i Creole; Mock Filipino; Stylization; Ethnic jokes; Mobility.

  • Netflix and the Transnationalization of the Audiovisual Industry in the Ibero
    Netflix and the transnationalization of the audiovisual industry in the Mª TRINIDAD GARCÍA LEIVA1 Ibero-American space https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8572-0565 DOI: https://doi.org/10.32870/cys.v2021.8238 LUIS A. ALBORNOZ2 https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0079-3317 RODRIGO GÓMEZ3 https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9888-2993 During the last fifteen years, audiovisual industries across the world have undergone profound transformations (Birkinbine et al., 2017; Hesmondhalgh, 2018; Miège, 2016). More specifically, the creation and international expansion of audiovisual services in the digital arena by US-based companies has taken place. Their global aims have boosted transnational market penetration strategies that have taken advantage of the global architecture of the World Wide Web. With the exception of China, which prohibits their entry and has developed its own services, the rest of the world has seen how US-based transnational operators have begun to act in their markets attracting clients. Subscription video on demand (SVOD) audiovisual services currently lead this process. According to Statista (2021), there were 642 million subscribers to this type of service in 2019 –compared to the 508.44 million registered the previous year– and it is expected that they will surpass 1 100 million by 2025. Within this context, Netflix has become the main transnational company providing SVOD services, 1 Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, Spain. [email protected] 2 Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, Spain.

  • The Effects of a Fully Distributed Context on Meetings a Qualitative Case Study at Ericsson
    Linköping University | Department of Management and Engineering Master's thesis, 30 ECTS | Industrial Engineering and Management Spring 2021 | LIU-IEI-TEK-A--21/04189--SE The Effects of a Fully Distributed Context on Meetings A Qualitative Case Study at Ericsson Annie Lund & Carl Älmeby Supervisor: Appu Balachandran Examiner: Solmaz Filiz Karabag Linköping University SE-581 83 Linköping, Sweden +46 013 28 10 00, www.liu.se ii Abstract Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, many companies have been forced to make their employees work from home, fully distributed. One of the work aspects affected by this change is meetings. The purpose of this study is to investigate what effects the fully distributed context have on meetings, meeting participants, and meeting leaders. To achieve this purpose, a qualitative single-case study was conducted. The empirical data were gathered from 15 interviews with employees at a large information and communications technology company in Linköping, Sweden. The theoretical framework including the fully distributed context, leadership, motivation, and attitudes, behaviors, and norms is the foundation for the analytical model used to analyze the empirical data. For meetings, it was found that the number of meetings has increased, meetings without fixed end times get longer, meetings need clear agendas and structures, and that meetings are booked in a tighter sequence without room for breaks. Using cameras during meetings increases participation but not if there are many meeting participants or when someone starts sharing their screen. It was found that inter-office meetings work better in the fully distributed context. Discussions are fewer and less lively in fully distributed meetings, but virtual fika1 is a kind of informal meeting that can help employees feel more connected and maintain interpersonal relations.

  • OK, Welcome, Everybody, to Another Guest-Lecture Primetime Here Today
    Andrew Clark: OK, welcome, everybody, to another guest-lecture Primetime here today. We have a wonderful, wonderful guest who’s here doing a master class with the second years and doing a Q&A with you guys today. A hilariously funny standup, a writer for shows such as Seinfeld, The Larry Sanders Show, and recently… uh, Saturday Night Live, MADtv over the summer, and the author of this book, How to Succeed in Business Without Really Crying, which some of you have brought with you today, and it’s available to be purchased today as well, right after the talk. Right here we’ll have a table set up, you can purchase the book, get it signed, take it home. It’s a fabulous book, it’s a great book, and it’s a great book for anyone who’s aspiring to do anything in comedy, and we’re lucky enough to have the author here today. So please welcome, Carol Leifer. (applause) Check out our high-tech microphones. Carol Leifer: You like how I did that? AC: Yeah. So I guess the very first question, although it’s looked into in your book, is how you got started in comedy. You were around the age of a lot of these students. CL: Yes! I was 21 years old. Can you believe it? That I was, at one time… AC: Sure, absolutely. (laughter) CL: I can’t. It’s a little more difficult when…I just turned 60! (applause) How crazy is that? Well, my story is pretty wild, because while I’m sure, like a lot of you, I was funny in school plays and at camp and that kind of thing, I was shy.
