Pair Programming: Pairing Alone Is Not Enough
نویسندگان
چکیده
The current focus on lightweight software processes emphasizes improvements in productivity and quality when two programmers work closely during development. We examine the productivity of two-person teams tasked to work independently on module construction versus two-person teams tasked to work concurrently on module construction. Analysis of this comparison reveals that teams in which member work more independently are significantly more productive than tightly coupled teams. Pair programming and lightweight software processes need to incorporate approaches designed to counteract this phenomenon. ACM

Thermodynamic study of Ion pairing in Aqueous solution of 〖BaF〗_2 by (_^19)F-NMR
The ion-pair association constant values, related to the reaction + were determined by means of the NMR spectroscopy. The values of the thermodynamic functions of the ion pairing process were calculated on the basis of the NMR results. In addition, the association entropy was found to be dependent on the temperature. Comparing the experimental data and the Fuoss theory it is found that ion-pa...

Many traditional software practices stress the importance of programming in Flow. XP directly challenges the assertion that Flow is critical and proclaims Pair Flow. Both Flow states are fragile. They are easily disrupted by outside distraction or task rotation. Both take a long time to enter. Furthermore, it takes days for a given pair to be comfortable enough with each other to be able to ach...
متن کاملSelective and Stable DNA Base Pairing without Hydrogen Bonds.
Noncovalent interactions between aromatic nucleobases are the major stabilizing forces which contribute to the structural integrity of duplex DNA and RNA.1-3 However, base pairing in nucleic acids is a consequence of more than just hydrogen bonding alone. The predictive success of nearest neighbor analysis,4 along with “dangling base” measurements which show duplex stabilization in the absence ...
متن کاملPerformance Evaluation of the NOMA in Imperfect SIC Mode and Ergodic Capacity Maximization with User Pairing Scenario in Three Users Groups
This paper evaluates the problem of user pairing scenario with similar channel conditions in NOMA with three users per pair. The small difference in the channel gain of the paired users leads to interference in the process of successive interference cancelation (SIC). The incidence of imperfect SIC reduces system capacity. Also, mid users in this scenario will be deprived of the advantages prov...
