“…In the present investigation about a mobile application for the control process of childhood anemia in times of the pandemic, the Scrum method is chosen for software development, because it is the one that best suits the times, the size of the project, and costs. Scrum is a framework that provides a series of rules and specific tasks that must be carried out in each iteration of the software project to ensure its proper functioning, The agile methodology has been recently extended into several branches, and the most popular extension can be attributed to the Scrum framework [20].…”

The objective of the research was to implement a mobile application for the control process of childhood anemia in times of pandemic, in order to have better medical control with faster care, better control of the diagnosis of anemia in children, and better performance and satisfaction. The following Scrum method was applied. The research has a quantitative approach, of experimental type. The sample consisted of 40 children. Results were obtained regarding time control in the speed of care, an increase of 10.2% was obtained; regarding the number of diagnoses, control, and follow-up in recovery there was an increase of 33.3% and finally regarding the control of performance and satisfaction with care there was an increase of 73.3%.

La productividad de los equipos ágiles representa un aspecto crucial para las empresas de desarrollo de software, ya que influye directamente en su desempeño y eficiencia, aspectos fundamentales para la búsqueda constante de mejoras. Diferentes estudios demuestran que la productividad de equipo en el desarrollo ágil de software (ASD por sus siglas en inglés) es un concepto abstracto, su significado aún sigue siendo objeto de estudio y se encuentra en construcción. Por otra parte, su medición se orienta hacia el establecimiento de diferentes factores de diversos tipos que generan una incidencia dentro del equipo, la organización e inclusive el mercado. El objetivo de este estudio consistió en identificar las métricas utilizadas para evaluar once factores clasificados en las categorías de significado, impacto y flexibilidad vinculados a la productividad de equipos en el ámbito del ASD. Este análisis se realizó mediante un mapeo sistemático de la literatura (MSL) dirigido según el protocolo de Petersen. Como resultado, se identificaron 37 investigaciones primarias en las bases de datos bibliográficas de IEEE Xplore DL y Scopus. Entre los hallazgos de esta investigación se incluye la definición de los factores elegidos, la determinación de métricas de productividad para cada uno de ellos y un intento de formalización matemática para algunas de estas métricas. Además, se notó que el 91.8 % de los estudios hacen referencia a factores de productividad asociados a la categoría de significado e impacto, mientras que son escasos los estudios que detallan factores vinculados a la categoría de flexibilidad.

Purpose In socio-technical transition theory, resistance by existing technology and regime resistance plays a key role. The resistance is in the form of intentional improvements; eventually, the regime destabilizes and adopts the new technology, referred to as the sailing-ship effect. Researchers used a structural view and examined it as a strategic action and its relationship with new technology (competitive/symbiotic) in non-fast-changing sailing systems. This study uses a microlevel view and examines it in a fast-changing where products/services are developed by integrating existing technology with new product innovations; their success depends on addressing technical/market uncertainty. This study examines the sailing-ship effect in a fast-changing system and contributes to the socio-technical transition theory. Design/methodology/approach The authors need to examine the phenomena of the sailing-ship effect in its setting, and a case-study method is appropriate. The selected case provided diverse analytic and heuristic perspectives to examine the phenomena; therefore, it was a single case study. Findings In an IT scenario, the strategic actions decide and realize agility and competitive advantage by formulating appropriate goals with required budgets and coevolutionary changes to resources at product, process and organizational levels, addressing technical/market uncertainty. Moreover, the agility displayed by strategic actions determines the relationship with new technology, which is interspersed. Finally, it provided insights into struggle, navigation and negotiations, forming strategic actions to display the sailing-ship effect. Research limitations/implications The study selected a Banking Financial Services and Insurance product of an IT Services company. As start-ups exhibit inherent (emergent) agility, the authors can examine agility as a combination of emergent and strategic actions by selecting a start-up. Practical implications The study highlights the strategic actions specific to an IT services company. It developed its product and services by steering clear from IT innovations such as native cloud and continuous deployment. It improved its products/services with necessary organizational changes and achieved the desired agility and competitive advantage. Therefore, organizations devise appropriate strategic actions to combat the sailing-ship effect apart from setting goals and selecting IT innovations. Originality/value The study expands the socio-technical transition theory by selecting a fast-changing system. It provided insights into the relationship between existing and new technology and the strategic actions necessary to manage technical and market uncertainty and achieve the desired competitive advantage, or the sailing-ship effect.
